>>> <type>int</type> For an input protocol this is the _target_ type. With "int" your _string_ is parsed and converted to an _integer_. No fractions. Keep sending strings representing integers (no dot "." characters in the string) but specify the _target_ "<type>double</type>", using offset/factors as described by Torsten. FlightGear will then parse your string, convert it to double precision floating point, and apply factors and offset. Make sure you're using FlightGear 2.2-pre-release or the current GIT version to achieve double precision. FG2.0/1,9.x only supported single precision with the generic protocol, so there was no difference between "float" and "double". This is the commit which made double precision work for the generic protocol, and it was not part of FG2.0 yet: http://www.gitorious.org/fg/flightgear/commit/d0f6f748ed7a2ad34159e18d352e4df6c11e2cde cheers, Thorsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and publish websites with WebMatrix Use the most popular FREE web apps or write code yourself; WebMatrix provides all the features you need to develop and publish your website. http://p.sf.net/sfu/ms-webmatrix-sf _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
