Ability to set LVARs in the aircraft.cfg

Hiya, In making my 787 Lineup. I found out that Line Number 570 and above have a small bulge on the bellly, not sure exactly what it is, but i’d like to be able to toggle this via visibility code. That part is simple and done. It shows my object if I set my LVar to 570.

I’d like to be able to control that LVar via the aircraft.cfg so livery creators can enter in the Line Number of that airframe and it would show/hide this node. However I can’t work out how I can control LVars in my aircraft.cfg. Fenix somehow manage it with their fabulous A320. So I’m curious if anyone else has managed to control Lvars in their aircraft.cfg or if it needs to be added to the sim like how you can set them in the systems.cfg

Many Thanks

Toby

L:Vars can be set in .flt files, they can’t be set in the aircraft.cfg as far as I know.

You can set persistent local vars in systems.cfg (see [LocalVars] section systems.cfg) but they retain any value set during runtime, stored in a cfg in %APPDATA%.
