Max 304 meters?

[.granQ. 0]

Working on a cockpit and wonders if its true that it works max to 304?

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> class IndicatorAltRadar

{

// max for this indicator is 1000 feet (i.e. 304m)

// note: this is actualy Baro altitude (name is wrong)

selection = "alt";

axis = "osa_alt";

angle = -360;

min = 0;

max = 304;

};

Want to have angle -270 and then max should be 900 meters, is it impossible or just me thats stupid?

isnt it in example??

If you have an angle of -270, then when the height goes from

304 to 305, the needle will 'jump' the last 90 degrees. If you

want a 'thousands' needle, you have to script it yourself:

something like:

In config.cpp:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

class Animations

{

  class IndicatorThousandsAlt

  {

        selection = "alt";axis = "osa_alt";

        rotationperiod = 0.001;

        angle0 = 0;angle1=2.5;

  };

And a script (kicked off by the init EH) altind.sqs:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

_plane = _this select 0

#MainLoop

?(!alive _plane): exit

_alt = getpos _plane select 2

_phase = _alt /10000

_plane animate["IndicatorThousandsAlt", _phase]

~.3

goto "MainLoop"

thanks, the "jumping needle" was very annoying, guess it will be a animation then.
