Lots of 0's
Posted: 26 Nov 2016, 09:12
Forgive my ignorance but I often notice in the aircraft.cfg there are lots of 0's after certain entries.
Example:
// Total Opensky Cargo - 17,350 lbs
station_load.2 =12300.000000, 45.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, Lwr Dk Cgo Fwd
station_load.3 =12300.000000, -50.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, Lwr Dk Cgo Aft
station_load.4 = 1000.000000, -70.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, Lwr Dk Cgo Bulk
[TurbineEngineData]
bypass_ratio=4.970
fuel_flow_gain=0.002000
inlet_area=40.68
rated_N2_rpm=29920.000000
static_thrust= 60800.000
afterburner_available= 0
reverser_available= 1.000
[Reference Speeds]
flaps_up_stall_speed= 118.000
full_flaps_stall_speed= 94.400
cruise_speed= 452.16
max_indicated_speed=340.000000
max_mach=0.860010
//--------------------------------------------
In other cfg's the entry may look like:
max_indicated_speed=340.0
reverser_available=1.0
I never know when editing a cfg to round off some of these figures, will it make a difference?
I recently saw one but forget which aircraft it was but the figure was something like: cruise_speed=250.452380 could that have been cruise_speed=250.5 instead?
