GPS VARIABLES
GPSVars are variables that third party APIs and add-ons can use to get information about the position in the world of any number of things, like an airport, a waypoint, etc... as well as a number of other pieces of data used when querying or creating flight plans. These variables can be accessed using the Reverse Polish Notation C: variable type, along with the fs9gps module name, for example:
Get: (C:fs9gps:Variable Name , Units) Set: (>C:fs9gps:Variable Name , Units)
Within the JavaScript API, these are retrieved like SimVars using GetSimVarValue(name, unit, dataSource = "").
You can find detailed information about each particular GPS Var on the following pages:
- Airports
- Nearest Airports
- Intersections
- Nearest Intersections
- NDB
- VOR
- Flightplans
- Miscellaneous
GPSVar Index
Below you can find indexed all the SimVars available, presented this way to facilitate finding the required variable at a glance or through the search system:
