If there isn't an issue with the creator of the program, can you upload it here?

Is there a way to just have a link to the site in the download section so that way you don't have to worry about getting permission... just go to where the maker of the program had origianlly uploaded it? So say if someone here wanted to download the file, there is no download button, but a link to re-direct them to the site where it is originally uploaded?

On the same site I stumbled upon a similar program with some additional options. Seems to be a bit more powerfull.

[HSI_RangeCounter]

Type=RANGE_INDICATOR

CounterNodeFormat=HSI_rangedig%d

MovementType=ANALOG_COUNTER

how to do separate lights for flap up, take of, landing?

Here's my entry:

 

[FlapsUp]

Set[01].Position=1.0

Set[01].Value=0.0

Set[02].Position=0.0

how to overheat the engine in 20mins on full throttle?

Sorry buddy, I have no idea on that one either

[+Bongodriver 20]

how to overheat the engine in 20mins on full throttle?

 

My guess is that some things just aren't possible, after all this is a 'sim lite' and complex engine management is not traditionally something TK considers for this series.

Thank you buddy! I tried something similar but not exactly this.

Problems solved, more ahead :-)

Actually, you can cause the engine to fail after a certain amount of time...but I don't know how randomized it is.

 

What I did when I was experimenting was causing the oil pressure to exceed limits, and I noticed it was adjustable to an extent (ie if you exceeded a little, it took a while before the engine would start having problems, but if you exceeded a LOT, it would have problems quickly).

 

However, I don't know if you could stretch it out to 20 minutes...

Inlet and exhaust temp limits work best.

Another small upgrade:

How is the inlet temp limit working?
