I have found for tweaks on the pilot position in the seat and landing or position lights, you can use the following rule on position:

 

 

Position=[right/left of centerline],[fwd/aft from acft center],[above/below acft centerline]

 

 

These samples are from the MiG-21MF_Data.INI and the A-5B_Data.INI

 

MiG-21MF_Data.INI

// Crew ---------------------------------------------------------

 

[Pilot]

SystemType=PILOT_COCKPIT

PilotModelName=PilotER

SetCockpitPosition=TRUE

Position=0.0,2.83,0.85 <-------------Change this

MinExtentPosition=-0.30, 2.37, 0.05

MaxExtentPosition= 0.30, 3.42, 1.05

HasArmor=TRUE

ArmorMaterial=GLASS

Armor[FRONT].Thickness=62

CanopyNodeName=Canopy

 

A-5B_Data.INI

// Lights ---------------------------------------------------------

 

[LeftNavLight]

SystemType=LIGHT

Color=0.98,0.5,0.5

Brightness=0.05

Position=-8.0867,-4.3525,0.045 <--------Change this

LightSrcOffset=-0.2,0.0,0.0

LightSrcRange=0.5

CanFlash=FALSE

 

[RightNavLight]

SystemType=LIGHT

Color=0.5,0.98,0.5

Brightness=0.05

Position=8.0867,-4.3525,0.045 <----------Change this

LightSrcOffset=0.2,0.0,0.0

LightSrcRange=0.5

CanFlash=FALSE

 

[landinglight]

SystemType=Light

Color=0.88,0.88,0.88

Brightness=0.05

Position=0.8400,0.4441,-0.7375 <--------Change this

LightSrcOffset=2.6046,49.0560,3.50

LightSrcRange=150

LightRange=45.0

CanFlash=FALSE

LightNodeName=LandingLight

IsLandingLight=TRUE

 

It is a trial and error routine, but it is fun doing some mods yourself and getting into the community. This is not my own technique, but ones I have found stirring around in the Forums.
