• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

MSFS20 Can Worldscript define a local variable for a SimObject to read?

Hi All,
I want to trigger an action in a worldscript (scenarii) which will create a local variable contain a value of 0,1 or 2. I then want the attached Container, which is a taxiway light, to illuminate a bright red in the day, and a lower intensity red at night, or to have no emission at all, hence 0.

All attempts to date have failed when using the RPN abilities of Worldscript. I expect to see the variable appear in Tool Behavior Local Variables, but there is no sign. So often, the examples are way to complicated and apply to Aircraft, and my requirement is just a simple thing, not really needing animation, but it currently has me beaten. Of course WorldScript itself is a "Work in Progress" that being 2020 will never be completed, so I may be clutching at straws.

Thanks

Yes they can

A worldscript with an Executerpnaction section linked to the trigger and to the object should instance the variable
