It's measuring in Meters, Feet measured would be beneficial.

Thanks

ActUnitReport 20230331 HC 2023.001+
  Incremented DLL to version 3
  Modified code to allow the ExportDLL to work
   with HC 2023.001+.  It will no longer work
   in earlier builds of the game.

I forgot that this shows aircraft altitude (not just low, medium, high etc), be hand for a distance to horizon calculator

Possibly but we also abandoned the gradual altitude changes so I'm not sure if the altitude in meters is enabled in the game, sounds like something for someone to try.

Hello, is changelog 1 compatible with HC 2022.027?

I'll check it out Sunday if not before, keep in mind the ExportDLL doesn't do much.  Is there some critical functionality you are seeking?

[jugasa77]

TonyE: it doesn't run nor in HC2022.027 nor in HC2023.011.

[TonyE]

Hmm, works here as in it isn't crashing the game.  Can you be more specific on what it isn't doing for you?

I didn't see it before. The chart comes in another window.

But it is unmanageable.

When you select another window the "course and altitude window" disappear and you have to select it again.

And what 8.450.723.725.970.465.792 means?

This is all about v1.

It would be altitude in meters if we hadn't rolled back the additional of altitude measured in meters.  In other words, it is meaningless.

As to unmanageable, true enough but again, the ExportDLL doesn't provide much of any value add at present, is it worth using?

First of all, thanks for your effort.

It would be better that the tool came in a window that you can minimice or maximice like toolbox tool.

Does 8.450.723.725.970.465.792 means 8450 meters? I think I can't understand.

Agreed on minimize and maximize.  Once I dig back into this ExportDLL's code, I'll modify the window management.

The big number has no meaning.  For a while I was modifying the game to use meters but removed the code from the game but not the ExportDLL so you see that non-sensical altitude.  

I'm not sure when I'll work on the ActUnitReport code, probably not in January.  What do you most want to see this one do?

Thanks for your effort. That's enough for me.
