• 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.

Random Action

Hi,
I have programmed a random action that is working well. However I would like to also show a dialog on the screen as to which action has turned on.
So far

Timer_Random_cycletime1
Random action (2 choices here)(Objectact1on,objectact1of)
Objectstatechanges

While fault finding I want to monitor the state of the condition

The random action after cycle time picks either to turn a condition on or off.
I want a dialog to appear to indicate the state of object1on or object1of

Thanks Mike
 
Mike,

Can you provide more detail of the specific actions that are being randomized.

If so, I might be able to give you a workaround. Currently, as far as I can tell, there's no way to specifically put up text or otherwise indicate which action the Randomizer chose.

Depending on what the actions are though, there are some tricks you can do.
 
Hi,
Still working on some other areas of my mission, If I need the info I will revist later.

Thanks Mike
 
I have worked it out

I was going along the lines of....

Random timer

Randomchoice

Oject1(true) , object1(false)

Action1(On) , object1(Off)

I could not put a dialog in the mission after the oject(true/false)

I added another layer with a timer action with time at .001

Random Timer

Random choice

Timer1 , timer2 , etc

object1(true)+Dialogaction1, object1(False)+dialogaction2

Action1(On), Action1(off)

Thanmks Mike
 
You can also use a counter for this. the random action counts one of the counters and that fires the action and the dialog. :)
