CHECKLISTS
You can create one or more checklist for an aircraft under /sim/checklists. These
are intended to mimic the checklists of aircraft themselves, and can be found under
the Help->Checklists menu within the simulator.
Tutorials are automatically generated from checklists on startup.
Each checklist is defined as a property tree under /sim/checklists/checklist[n]
or /sim/checklists/group[n]/checklist[m]
with the following tags
- Name of the checklist
- Whether a tutorial should be automatically generated (true, default)
or not (false).
- Zero or more pages for the checklist containing:
- - One or more checklist items containing:
- name of the checklist item (e.g. Carb Heat), to appear on the left
- One or more values for the checklist item, to appear on the right
hand side
- A tutorial marker (displayed when the user presses the ? button)
This can be easily placed using the Help->Display Tutorial Marker.
Contains x-m, y-m, z-m and scale tag.
- Optional standard FlightGear condition node that evaluates when the
checklist item has been completed.
- Zero or more bindings to execute the checklist item. Allows the user
to have their virtual co-pilot perform the action if they select the
">" button next to the checklist item.
The tag may be omitted for single-page checklists, with the
- tags
immediately under the node.
Tutorial auto-generation of all checklists can be disabled by setting
/sim/checklists/auto-tutorials=false.
Checklists may be grouped under nodes with a tag decribing the
group. For example
Emergency
false
...
...
Normal
true
...
