Dataref.type Property

  4. Dataref.type Property

The writable property returns whether or not this dataref can be written to, as a bool.

Note: even if a dataref is marked writable, it may not act writable. This can happen for datarefs that X-Plane writes to on every frame of simulation. In some cases, the dataref is writable but you have to set a separate “override” dataref to 1 to stop X-Plane from writing it.

Example

> dataref = simulator.findDataref("laminar/c172/fuel/fuel_tank_selector")
Dataref{ name: "laminar/c172/fuel/fuel_tank_selector" }
> dataref.writable
false
