[simpits-tech] Changing Com1, not standby in FS2k2

[Stuart Whelan]

Can anyone help with this?

Please please?

The sample EPL code at bluesideup, while helpful, only tells half the
story. The flightsim cfg file would tell the other half. It also looks
as if it is for fs2000 or earlier.

As far as I can see it is just not possible to do in FS2k2.

I tried this approach also:

Init:
Read Com 1 Active
Swap Standby and Active
Read Com 1 Active
Increment Standby until it is the same as the active.

Change:
Change standby
Swap standby and active
Change standby..

This means that the active and standby are always the same.

The problem here is that in order to swap the com radio you have to
'select' it, and that leaves it highlighted. 

Not nice. :(

Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Cheers,
Stuart.
