MobiFlight Community Support

Hi everybody,

I'm using the mobiflight-event-module in the Community folder to set LVARs from an X-Touch mini using X-Touch-Mini-FS2020.

It's working quite well and I want to add my own settings in the events.user.txt file, but I didn't find any documentation regarding the syntax of this file.

For example I want to increment or decrement the LVAR ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL by 10. So I tried to add these lines:

Code:

ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL_INC#(L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL, 1) +10 (>L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL)
ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL_DEC#(L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL, 1) -10 (>L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL)

But unfortunatelly it sets to +10 or -10 the ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL variable, it doesn't add 10 or -10 to it.

Thank you for your help if you have any ideas on how to solve my problem!

Hello Paulo74
You can read this document on the RPN syntax used in the scripts. They use RPN, or reverse polish notation, which is how old HP engineering calculators used to be. Basically it mimics the operation of a stack and the parameters go first and then the operand. So adding 10 would be (VARIABLE) 10 + (>VARIABLE). Get it?

Try this, assuming your variables are the correct ones:

Code:

ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL_INC#(L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL, 1) 10 + (>L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL)
ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL_DEC#(L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL, 1) 10 - (>L:ASCRJ_FCP_WHEEL)

Many thanks!

As an old guy I know the RPN but I didn't figure out I have to use it in this file. Will try asap

I confirm: it's working
