FPLCheck (V1.6): flight plan checker
FPLCheck (V1.6): flight plan checker
As a tasksetter, I find that I have spent too much time checking and re-checking my flight plans (which does not prevent me from occasionally posting tasks with incorrect settings )
So I wrote a little program that automatically verifies that certain parameters of Condor obey pre-defined constraints.
The beta version is available there : https://drive.google.com/open?id=1EIU0e ... wJT6sInsrQ
Comments are welcome

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
WindTurbulence *** NOT OK: 2 should be: <= 1
ThermalsTurbulence *** NOT OK: 2 should be: <= 1
Well - maybe you could make another small app: 'RL wx from igcs (few) to C2 wx fpl converter for given task'?
I know we don;t have all informations, but those could be retrieved from somewhere else maybe. (Manually, if not automatic).
Just idea.

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Some Tchin-tchin pilots have very delicate seats of the pants
That being said, it's just a template, you can set whatever you want

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Some improvements :
- The program has an icon (à la "CondorUTill")
- Wildcards can be used to check TP parameters
- Start & finish altitudes

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Following suggestions received on another forum:
If there are too many comments, the list will be truncated, you will have to look at the logfile.
Fortunately the range functionality works without any modification of the code
It is therefore possible to define a validity range for any numerical value (see example in README.txt)

DoneCould we have the comments directly in the popup window?

DoneAnd it would be nice too to be able to set a control of the starting height (max altitude - ground altitude) with a range, for example between 1000 and 1500m.

If there are other requests, I'll put that on the to-do listAnd finally, could we have an automatic correction of reported errors with save to a corrected fpl ?

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Strange name Marc...
Seeing your other programs I would have thought it would have been named German Like also... Maybe something like CoFliChe.
Just kidding...
FPLCheck: flight plan checker is fine.

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
You're right, but as it's just a beta version of a very simple program, I haven't taken the time to work on the name yet

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Fixed a display bug :
The error message was incorrect for AGL altitudes that didn't conform the constraint (although the test was correctly done)
before :
TPWidth3 : 0, should be : >= 0 (confusing, isn't it ?)
after:
TPWidth3 : 0, should be : >= 0AGL (640.0)

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Cosmetic changes in reporting window :
- added "(Min Alt)" and "(Max Alt)" after TPWidth# and TPHeight# respectively
- added "... See file FPLCheck.log" if window too small

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Small requests.
Could it check few fpls at once? (Want to select all fpls from contest to check)
FPLCheck.log could show them one by one with header with fpls name
- as an option: use FPLCheck.log only (no popup msg)
Also
- could it skip all OK lines (to show invalid only lines) in FPLCheck.log?
btw Notepad 3 gives me error: Inconsistent Line Endings in FPLCheck.log:

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
I've done it for CoFliCo, so that should be easy
That could be done, command line options or via a .ini file ?- as an option: use FPLCheck.log only (no popup msg)
Also
- could it skip all OK lines (to show invalid only lines) in FPLCheck.log?
However, kids visiting this weekend so not before the middle of next week
I could add a CR at the end, but does it really matter ?btw Notepad 3 gives me error: Inconsistent Line Endings in FPLCheck.log:
Inconsistent Line Endings115044.png
You could un-check the "Always show this dialog" tick-box

IMHO *.ini would be fine...

Sure, no hurry!
Thank you for all your tools!

Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
Works perfect. TYVM!
Re: FPLCheck: flight plan checker
FPLCheck has been updated to Version 1.0.
Minor change : popup windows can be more or less verbose (see README.txt and FPLCheck.ini)
Available now from my webpage : http://condorutill.pagesperso-orange.fr#FPLCheck
Please do not use the old Google Drive links any more as they won't be maintained in the long term.
