Which FS2004 animation tag?

[Cees Donker]

I'm struggling with the following issue: I want to animate a switch that switches between the main fuel tank, an auxilliary tank and a no fuel option. Both tanks are centre tanks. I searched the MakeMDL SDK to no avail.

I appreciate your help very much!

Are you using Gmax? If so look in the Gmax plugins folder, then open 'mkmdl.parts.xml' in Notepad, & then scroll through that list. If you already have an aircraft with the correct sequence then that would help locate it. This of course is for animating the appropriate lever in Gmax - there is then no need to use a panel code, pictures or additional .xml code. I must admit that I have not found the ideal one yet, but no-one else seems to have complained either! The SDK does list the codes for each tank.

Hi Keith,

I don't use Gmax for my building but I have it. I'll take a look. Thanks!
