Where are airline configuration options saved?
-
Hello everyone,
I'm curious where airline configuration options are saved on the RJ. I'm trying to make some adjustments to the Northwest Airlink paint, and every time I select something different (e.g. HF antenna, tail skid, etc), the plane simply reverts back to what seems to be default when I close/reload the simulator again (MSFS2020).
Thank you.

Apologize, another question on this. Does state saving need to be enabled to save airline configuration options? For the life of me, either editing the ini or going through the EFB, I can't get options to stick between sessions (wanting to disable HF, enable VHF3, and remove tail skid, but they all turn themselves back on when I load the simulator again).
Thanks.

State saving does not affect the external equipment selection, as the external equipment is automatically set on a per-livery basis based on the data in the livery_config.ini file.

@Mark does configuration use the variation or aircraft title in the header, or something else? I still cannot get any single configuration (literally) to save based on either what I set in the tablet or try to add manually to the ini file.
Thank you.

The titles in the livery_config.ini for the RJ use the Title= entry from the Aircraft.cfg with the "Just Flight" prefix removed.
There are two Northwest liveries included with the RJ, they each have their own entry in the livery_config.ini file as follows:
[RJ85 Northwest Airlink]
hasTailskid=0
hasVHF3=1
hasHF=0
hasMetAlt=0
[RJ85 Northwest Jet Airlink]
hasTailskid=0
hasVHF3=1
hasHF=0
hasMetAlt=0The 0s and 1s after the equal signs will indicate whether that piece of equipment is fitted by default. For example:
hasTailskid=0 // The tailskid will not be fitted by default
hasTailskid=1 // The tailskid will be fitted by defaultThe livery_config.ini only supports the default liveries in the RJ at the moment, and I believe any third-party liveries will always load in with all equipment enabled. We recently added support for custom external equipment configurations for third-party liveries in our F28 Professional, and we plan on bringing that across to the RJ in the next update.
Hope that helps.

That right there is why I've been pulling my hair out then. Every single third party livery does indeed load with all equipment enabled by default on every single flight (even if I exit to main menu/close the sim). I'll sit tight for the next RJ update now, thank you.
