TWS export possible

AndyHill · 08-21-2006, 06:26 PM

I did some preliminary testing with TWS stuff in lua and it seems that it should be possible to create a TWS (and its russian counterpart) view in TB if someone figures out how to get the lua exports to TB. Here's what the TWS export data looks like: http://tols17.oulu.fi/~ailomaki/lo/TWS2.log

Priorities could relate to position on the TWS display ring. It seems to fluctuate near numbers 160, 260 and 360 all the time. Signal power is probably the one displayed on the Russian TWS system. I'm not certain, but "1" seems to be the unattainable maximum. If someone starts working on an actual TWS display it might be best to just ask ED guys how to translate these values into actual TWS symbols. I kind of think TWS on a touchscreen might prove handy some day.

BTW, the readings in the example log were taken at 0.5 second intervals in a quick mission 4 F-15 vs 4 Su-33.
