I’m working on my project for MSFS2024 slowly but surely but I’m stuck on the VDGS thing. I have positioned the docking sight at one parking and it’s well there in the scenery. But the docking system doesn’t seem to work. The object is there, I look at it, it looks at me, we look at each other and that is all. Moving the view forwards/backwards or inside a cockpit has no effect and the green bar stays in its down position. I think I’m missing something but what?
I can confirm VDGS does not do anything
If I recall correctly, it works on the marshalling simvars, so it might only work when parking in the parking spot you are given by the ingame atc, which makes it not very useful.
Thank you both for your input. I’m still trying but without a response from Asobo it’s rather difficult to proceed. I recently asked ChatGPT for some VDGS XML examples but it’s never the same responses…Moreover it sometimes directs you to the Nool VDGS but I believe it’s a payware -well I’m not sure- and I want to stick to an in-built option inside MSFS2024.
I think that the object should be converted to a SimPropContainer, but the SDK is not very clear on this matter…And when I try do so there are immediate CTDs (I’m running version1.4.18.0 but it was the same thing with previous ones). It’s frustrating…
