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.

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
WEEKEND RECAP: initially we want to end up with something like this : The internet/PC will be replaced with a unit in the aircraft. Whilst in need of some inspiration of what kind of unit to make, i popped down to the boneyard (Kemble) and gathered some items to test some ideas: :stirthepo... -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
Thanks Tom, original logic used and working : <Element> <Select> <Value> (L:FLD_State,enum) 0 == (L:TankSub, number) 1 == && if{ (A:FUEL TOTAL QUANTITY,gallon) (L:CurrentAmount,enum) - (>L:Loadsub, enum) (L:EAFS, enum) (L:Loadsub, enum) - (>L:EAFS, enum) 0 (>L:TankSub, number) (L:EAFS... -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
Im unable to get on the PC right now to try this. But I must admit Im struggling to figure out how to achieve this with capacity and quantit. The sums I’ve tried don’t add up. -

Tom, just brain storming, when the fuel quantity goes up, does the capacity come down in the sim? -

I see, thanks Tom. I’ll look into it. -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
Hi Tom. The dump side is working fine, adding the amount to storage as expected. Its the loading. The code is a reverse of the dump code, but as above, it can’t work like that unless the aircraft is loaded with zero fuel. In that Scenario it’s ok. but if the aircraft has an amount of fuel... -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
Thanks Tom so I have been thinking about the odd qwerty behaviour with the filling. … bear with me I’m on a phone in work …. I’m thinking if the value of total fuel was past to another Lvar and used to subtract the correct amount The idea: In an element or click Total fuel > currentAmount (... -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
awesome stuff Tom, thanks - copied to notes :) OK...so...this was actually going to be my first approach. As i started playing with someone else's work i didn't feel morally right, so i asked the gauge builder if this would be OK. I didn't get a response so thought i would take option 1. After... -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
Sorry, I don't understand what this code is supposed to do. OK, so now that I’m not so delirious with a bad cold, I also don’t know, 😳. I think I was trying to get it to do it’s thing when the fuel was above 99%… I was trying all sorts to try and get some kind of result. But as you pointed out... -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
Hi Tom Its no.2 that i have problem with. When state goes back to zero, so also does tanksub. It does not hold the 1 value, but returns to 0. So i tried other ways and as you say, in another statment also. Here's a none working attempt, (sets tanksub to higher numbers) <Element> <Select>... -

Many thanks Tom, appreciate the insight. Been a little stumped 🤔 with this one but you’ve given me the idea. Certainly has helped. Hopefully before, but I’ll be on it again the weekend. -

FSX IS this possible with a 2d pop-up XML gauge?
Hi Tom Thanks for the reply. Thats almost what i want, but it to be true after being zero. As the gauge loads in zero state, so it would load the fuel on session load. i want it to load the fuel after moving from 2 - 0. -

another none working example <Value>(L:FLD_State,enum) 2 == (L:FLD_State,enum) 0 == && if{ (L:EAFS, enum) 10000 < if{ (L:EAFS, enum) (A:FUEL TOTAL QUANTITY,gallons) - (>L:EAFS, enum) } } </Value> I think the problem may be this part: (L:FLD_State,enum) 2 == (L:FLD_State,enum) 0... -

I've now tried so many different ways i'm now confused ...it just wont work ? I've move the Lvars about, reversed them, ect ect. 1 thing i haven't tried is move the FLD_State '0' and '2' around. ...nope didnt work either -

I'm currently trying to accomplish the first task of having the switch position recognized and then something done, which isn't going to well. Everything i try just increases the Lvar's value instead of decreasing it Here are some of many failed attempts : <Element> <Select>...
