[FSXA] How to read the first digit of ADF freqency

[Koalar]

I'm using the variable "ADF FREQUENCY:1" to get the ADF frequency, the unit is KHz, if the ADF frequency is 1234.0 in the game, I got a return value of 102340, if the frequency is 0234.0, I got 102340 all the same. Similar if I choose to return in BCD16 or Hz, the return value is always the same regardless of the first digit. I'm so confused. Could any body help me with this?

Try using this instead:

(A:ADF ACTIVE FREQUENCY:1,KHz)

The fraction part of the ADF frequency is also not reflected in the return value. Most of the time, the return value doesn't change whatever the fraction part is. But both the first digit and the fraction part can be set correctly throw the event ADF_COMPLETE_SET.

That works! I can't believe I mistook the description for the simulation variable and stucked here for a whole night. Thank you n4gix!

I keep the FSX SDK loaded on my dev machine 99.9% of the time for ready reference. I can't possibly remember all of the exact token/event names myself with complete certainty!
