Offest 3367, Doors

[BenBaron]

Hi Pete,

I have been fiddeling around with this offset for hours now in FS2004 :roll:. I tried to open the door as I thought this was possible and thought it wasn't working just because of me doing someting wrong with bit manipulation.

But now, I found out it is becaue of the offset doesn't seem to take my FSUIPC_Write as it is working with other offsets connected to bit manipulation.

Well...do you know what might be wrong there? I was trying to set the least significant bit to open the main door (even tried to set the whole byte to 1) but nothing works.

Thanks in advance!

Looking at the offset documentation, I think this offset was only added as a doors open indicator, not a control. That's how it reads to me, and checking the code that is how it is implemented, at least in FSUIPC3. I extended it in FSUIPC4 when adding the other doors -- more useful really. The FS2004 version can't even detect the other doors.

The only way you can do it programmatically in FS9 is by sending the Toggle Aircraft Exit control via offset 3110. You should check the status in 3367 first, of course, because there is only the toggling control.
