HotStart Challenger 650 Popout Panel combinations

View File

---

This is a simple plugin for the HotStart Challenger 650 that allows the user to define combinations of popout panels. These combinations can then be bound to a button as a command.

Read the README.md file in the package Documentation. The most important note is that this is installed into the Aircraft plugins! Not global X-Plane plugins.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is just what I needed.

I'd seen Reflected Reality do something similar in one of his videos and I asked him how I could do it. He responded but I could never figure it out. This addon solves a problem. I hope you'll continue to add features to it.

One additional thought. Once the MU-2 is upgraded for XP12, it too, could benefit from this (or a similar) addon.

Just an FYI to everyone. I am currently working on a bit of a restructure in the plugin to solve a bug where loading your configuration sometimes gets messed up requiring reloading the airframe, and even if you reload it might happen again. Unfortunately my time is quite limited so it is not going as fast as I would like.

As for future features, there are some ideas in my mind for other "utilities" which would be nice to have with the 650, but nothing set in stone yet.

I have not considered supporting other airframes at this time as I rarely fly anything else. As always nothing is set in stone, but also no promises.

A new version (1.0.1) was just published with a likely fix to that pesky bug. Please report here if you still experience your combinations triggering together or as mixed results of several combinations.

Does this utility work in xp12 ???

Does not appear to as I have installed it

per your information and the plugin does not

show up in the plugin menu.

Your thoughts please.

It does. I'm using it with XP12 with no problems whatsoever.

I should have mentioned that it's shows up in the Challenger menu rather than the Plugin menu. Maybe this tidbit of information may help someone else down the road.
