I’m using the SimConnect Python API to read and display SimVars, among which the engine parameters. Many of these are indexed variables, so instead of requesting GENERAL_ENG_RPM you have to request GENERAL_ENG_RPM:1, GENERAL_ENG_RPM:2 etc. However, how do I determine, using the SimConnect API, how many engines there are?
| Simulation Variable | Description | Units | Settable | Multiplayer |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NUMBER OF ENGINES | Number of engines (minimum 0, maximum 4) | Number | N | - |
Thank you, exactly what I was looking for.
