Chart Builder

Hi, pilots!

I' ve made a small application program - Chart Builder. See links below.

Chart Builder

Thanks

Thanks Andre, just out of curiosity, do you know if it would also be possible to create data such as flight time and score to be directly converted for export to a web page?

Hi!

Do you mean to show the result chart at a web-site?

what is about the variable of a FLAG?

Could make your self a working log book hehe kidding

Sorrry, I don't understand the question.

Hi Andre, yes maybe it is possible to export some of that data directly to a website. Will be cool to have the different squad mates flying data automatically updated in whatever format, graph or text...call it a virtual logbook if you will as TimeKilla suggested.

I'm asking since I get the feeling you are in the know about these kinda stuff.

Sorrry, I don't understand the question.

you export aircraft data...can you also export mission data, like FLAG status(true/false) or FLAG value (1....3....4)?

Hi!

Not yet. I'm going to try. Would you please modify the export.lua in such a way, to write down Flag data into the file?

Hi!

Yeah, it's possible. Why not.

PS As a very simple solution, you can insert screenshots of charts and put flight data files at personal blog web-pages or something like that.

And what about other environmental data? I would be particulary interested in things like wind direction and strength at the current altitude.

I belive it could be done.

There's a lot of data we can export to file, including:

LoGetVectorWindVelocity = {x,y,z} -- vector of wind velocity (world axis)

LoGetAltitudeAboveSeaLevel()

LoGetAltitudeAboveGroundLevel()

See attached file export_original.lua for more details.

ChartBuilder v. 1.1 can handle up to 12 parameters. Input file format should be like this:

Time;header1;header2;...header11[new line]

time;number1;number2;... number11 [new line]

and so on

Which parameters export to file and see at the chart is up to you, pilots.

If 12 parameters and 1 chart area are not enough, I can add some more.

Export_original.lua

Great idea! I couldn't get this to work unfortunately. Where are the exported files saved?

Hi!

My export.lua saves data into C:\dcsw_flight_data\. You should create the directory first, otherwise data could not be written.

Have you managed to build the chart from my sample file?

Yes but nothing is there... I will check again and see what I might have done wrong and get back to you!
