Part Variables
List of craft components and their possible variable outputs.
Part variables are local data outputs generated by specific aircraft components. These variables allow expressions to access real-time physical data from individual parts, such as engine RPM, suspension extension, or aerodynamic forces.
Usage
To access a part variable, you must enable its variable setter in the part variables menu and decide a variable name to write to. This will allow the part to write the data to that variable.
Categories
Propulsion
Telemetry from engines and rotors, providing data on rotational speeds and thrust output.
Aerodynamics
Physical forces acting on lifting surfaces, useful for creating custom flight instruments or stability augmentation systems.
Mechanical & Structural
Data from moving parts like rotators, hinges, and shocks, representing current positions or compression states.
Sensors & Optics
Outputs from specialized parts like cameras, providing information on view angles and activation status.
