GROUNDPOWERUNIT DEFINITION
A Ground Power Unit vehicle has the same parameters as other Ground Vehicles, with some additional properties. It can attach itself to an aircraft, with a cable that is at least partly in the aircraft model (but hidden by default). The Ground Power Unit has many similarities in its configuration with the FuelTruck.
Sim.cfg
The sim.cfg file of a Ground Power Unit must contain the [GroundPowerUnit] section with the following parameters:
Model Behavior Helper
A model behavior helper is available for Ground Power Units, by including "Asobo.xml": ASOBO_GroundPowerUnit_Hose_Deployment_Template. This template takes a single parameter NODE_ID, which contain the name of the Node of cable on the Ground Power Unit, if any. This will hide the node by default, and only make it visible when the vehicle is connected to an aircraft.
For more information please see: Ground Vehicle ModelBehavior Helpers
Note on Simvars
The individual values for the assignations of the parameters in the [GroundPowerUnit] section are reflected in the following simvars:
