Avonics modding tutorial

[sophiamargaret]

Hello, newbie here. Is there a tutorial on how to mod avionics? I just want to understand how things on ini particularly on data.ini work. Can someone explain it?

This is for SF1 but most of it still applies in SF2:

I have found one of the best ways to figure things out is to compare the data and avionics.ini files of different add on aircraft as well as the stock game aircraft. Cross check the figures in the .ini files with the data you can find on the net and pretty soon you will work it all out. The experienced modders here are awesome at answering any questions you might have provided you have tried searching the forums first incase it has been asked million times before lol.
