MobiFlight Variable

You can access the current value of a MobiFlight variable and reference it with $ throughout the rest of the configuration settings, e.g. transform, compare, interpolation, etc.

Settings

  • Type - Number or String. Number interprets value for variable as number; String interprets value for variable as String.
  • Name - The name of the variable. There are no restriction or conventions. Names are case-senstive, e.g. "myVar" is not the same as "MYVAR" or "myvar"
