LVAR for switches

Post by flymustangs »

I hope this is a good spot for this question, but I can't seem to find the answer. Working on a sim cockpit using the A2A Mustang with LVARS. I'm trying to get the switches set up and had a question on the LVARs. It seems like for just about every switch, there is an additional variable with "Drag" added. For example, there is a L:Eng1_SuperchargerSwitch and a corresponding L:Eng1_SuperchargerSwitchDrag. What is the purpose of the second variable? I'm just wondering if that might be useful.

I believe that 'drag' LVar is only in use when you use the mouse to drag a switch from one position to another.

I have never had need to use the drag lVars when setting up my controller switches to operate the switches in the aircraft.

One of the A2A programmers might pop in here and verify this.

As Paul says, this variable informs some other parts of a code that you are dragging a switch with your mouse button pressed.
