Hello everyone!

I finally came up with my own personalized panel and I ended up adding SIMULATOR CONTROLS.

I managed to configure all buttons but I'm struggling with the encoder for TIME OF DAY

Last time I tried to use the OFFSET 0238 1 Hour of local time in FS (0–23) r and set on left as $-1 and on right as $+1
It didn't work as well :(

Can you help me? I've tried many ways to configure it but I gave up trying today :) I can't find the correct offset and I don't know what I am doing wrong

Thank you

The status of the Local time Hour and Minute is listed as not Writeable ( or better not confirmed)

Do we talk about a AddOn ( That maybe have a own Input logic) ?

If not what about to change zulu time instead. Maybe "Local" is done internal in relation to current Position on the World....
Means you not have to change Local cause its always correctly in relation to zulu.
Good Luck !

Also tried the Zulu time and it still doesn't work! :confused:

I don't know how to use the command under X-Plane input:
on one side use up and the other down:
Under settings make sure you have beta updates checked.[/b]

sim/operation/time_down
sim/operation/time_up
sim/operation/time_down_lots
sim/operation/time_up_lots[/b][/b]

I've been told to do that but I don't know how :lol:

LOL

You not say one word at initial request we talk about Xplane.... And you also not write this in the Xplane Sub.
So i need to expect we talk about FSX/P3D.

I don´t know if Xplane is Compatible here.... Lots of Offsets will be. Some are not.
I have as refference only the FSUIPC (FSX/P3D) List. In case every Xplane User work mostly with a own/different XPUIPC Version its not possible to support this directly.

What you now talk about is the "Brand new Feature" we allow in our newest BEta from last week.
THERE we can controll and handle XPLANE Inputs directly ( Handle DataRefs instead of talk to XPUIPC like in the past).
This feature is pretty new.... Still in Beta and not 100% tested or confirmed working.

I can badly not help you in case i never use Xplane myself.

Please driectly contact the user who give you that reommendation. I Expect it was a user on our Discord like Sam.

If you not find help..... Call me on Discord next week. I will manage a little time window for you. then we can figure out together.
Good Luck !
