This is madness…

Hey thanks for this list!

I have a project which scrapes the online docs to get lists of published Sim Vars into a database (also events). It’s not perfect but I’ve worked around anomalies I find, and your list helped. I’ve been doing comparisons with 2020 docs. Our findings almost match, but here are some anomalies I found (not as a criticism of your list at all, just maybe useful or some bugs in docs).

CIRCUIT NAVCOM ON4 vs. CIRCUIT NAVCOM4 ON
The 4th is new, though actually all the CIRCUIT NAVCOM* vars are listed in the index in the first form (trailing #), but in the actual reference in the 2nd form.

CIRCUIT NAVCOM ON3 is not listed in the 2020 docs index, but is listed in the body (as CIRCUIT NAVCOM3 ON).

FAILURE ACTIVE
FAILURE VALUE

These are on the index page only, not actually shown in the body of the '24 docs (that I can find) and the links from the index don’t work.

HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR PERCENT 
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM INTEGRITY

These two existed in '20 but took an index value (after the :). Now the '24 version take a “component name”. (Or maybe either.)

HYDRAULIC PRESSURE - was in '20 and now listed deprecated in '24 (but showing “:name” suffix instead of “:index”).
HYDRAULIC SWITCH - seems to be unchanged from '20 version.
MAX GROSS WEIGHT - “”

Some others I found…
These are not listed in the index but are in the body of their respective sections:

ELECTRICAL LINE BREAKER PULLED
ELECTRICAL LINE CONNECTION ON
PNEUMATICS FAN STATUS
PNEUMATICS FAN SWITCH
PNEUMATICS FAN TARGET STATUS
ROTOR GOV ENGINE TRIM
ROTOR GOV TARGET PCT
RUDDER TRIM MIN

These are in the index and seem to be new:

ELECTRICAL BUS AMPS
ELECTRICAL BUS VOLTAGE

EDIT 1: More from @Umberto67 (these seem to be read-only)

A:COVER ON:0 = chocks
A:COVER ON:1 = engine covers
A:COVER ON:2 = pitot covers
