AM 4.0 beta and MS2020 flap indicators

[falcon50]

Hi,

Again, about the MS2020 Baron G58.
The display of the flap indicator is strange.
The apr lamp does not continue to display.

Where should I edit?

[Sling]

In the instrument script.

Beechcraft B58 --I made a clone of the flaps indicator and changed various scripts, but the APR lamp does not appear.

”
function PT_liteup_FSX(flapsdeployment)

flapsdeployment = var_round(flapsdeployment / 100, 1)

visible(img_flaps_transit, (flapsdeployment > 0 and flapsdeployment < 0.5) or (flapsdeployment > 0.5 and flapsdeployment < 1) )

visible(img_flaps_apr, flapsdeployment == 0.5)

visible(img_flaps_down, flapsdeployment == 1)

end
”

Will it be displayed if I change any of the above?

Or maybe the data output of MSFS2020 is strange?
It is displayed properly in P3D.

[Sling]

What is the variable flapsdeployment doing from the sim. Whatever it’s doing will answer your question. For the apr light to be on it must be equal to 50.

[falcon50]

Thank you for replying to me.

This script is the default Baron flap indicator variable for fsx, P3D.
With this variable, the apr light will only light up for a moment in MSFS2020.
Are the variables output from MSFS2020 different in the first place?

[Sling]

I don’t know. That is why I said you need to view the variable while you operate the flaps. This can be done with the AM debugger tools or simply by placing a print in the appropriate place in the instrument code. The output of the print can be viewed in the create/edit tab console.

You'll have to monitor the flaps value from the sim and use that for the visible.

I observed the value of TRAILING EDGE FLAPS LEFT PERCENT in Data Viewer.
The value at the time of flaps APR was 33.333333
I changed it as below, but the APR light still does not light up.
Am I writing something wrong?
Give up!

It's better to take a bit of a margin, so from 0.33 to 0.34 for example.
But the instrument has already been updated, so you can forget about it.
