Great minds think alike!

Let me guess.. your thinking of graphing the 3D data to make an ACM display of the track file! When I saw the script gives access to 3D data that was the 1st thing I thought of too!

Problem is, and don't quote me, is I don't think the script works during playback of a track file? I think the script only works in real time, as in when you start the mission the script runs.

If so that is one of the limitations of the scripts.. Where as in IL-2 we had DeviceLink that was active during track playback.. And Devicelink allowed you to send commands (set) where as far as I can tell the C# script method only allows you to recive (get) data

This is one case where I hope I am wrong! But, I have been looking around (google) and I don't see where the C# scripts are active during a track playback

Alot of guys allready got it working.. Getting data during real time flight that is.. Playback of tracks.. Not sure, but it does not look doable

You nailed it Tailspin, I give this thread a perfect 10 for it's entertainment value.

On a more serious note: it's fun doing all the research ... a true learning experience.

Mission scripts are intended for mission logic, and not for interconnection with various devices as DeviceLink is. DeviceLinkish interface is probably still not implemented or at least hidden.

Can you get data on all aircraft in multiplayer? Speed/heading/position?

Can that be done client side or does it need to be done on the server? I'm not sure how to execute arbitrary scripts on the client.

Server side only, however in single player mode, server=client. You can't execute arbitrary scripts on clients in MP as that would allow security threats.

Yeah that's what I would have expected. But that means the only way to get data from multiplayer is to get it either from the server or from a track file.

Do we know anything about the .ntrk format?

But you can use scripts to drive guages
