FSX Remove a Thermal?

[seippg]

Hi,

I am creating a thermal in FSX with...

HRESULT SimConnect_WeatherCreateThermal(
HANDLE hSimConnect,
SIMCONNECT_DATA_REQUEST_ID RequestID,
float lat,
float lon,
float alt,
float radius,
float height,
float coreRate = 3.0f,
float coreTurbulence = 0.05f,
float sinkRate = 3.0f,
float sinkTurbulence = 0.2f,
float coreSize = 0.4f,
float coreTransitionSize = 0.1f,
float sinkLayerSize = 0.4f,
float sinkTransitionSize = 0.1f
);

But the call to Remove the thermal requires an ObjectId...

HRESULT SimConnect_WeatherRemoveThermal(
HANDLE hSimConnect,
SIMCONNECT_OBJECT_ID ObjectID
);

How do you get the object ID of the thermal you created so you can remove it?

Thanks,
Gregg

I haven't tried creating thermals, but if it's similar to AI, you should get a SIMCONNECT_RECV_ASSIGNED_OBJECT_ID struct with a dwObjectID member after it's created.
