Getting GPS data in enhanced scripts

[benfjo]

Hi,

I am trying to use GPS data (lat/long) in enhanced scripts. I seem to be able to get other other (Num Sats, Speed etc) but the latitude and longitude remain static. I am getting the data from a .vbo which I know is good and the track map displays fine but I don't seem to be able to pull the data to work on.

Foreground code.

// Should be Latitude
DrawNumber(GetDataValue(2), 1, 400, 0, NumberColor, FontSize, AlignH_Right);

// Should be Longtitude
DrawNumber(GetDataValue(3), 1, 400, 0, NumberColor, FontSize, AlignH_Right);

(yes i know I have hardcoded the data value locations).

This is the first line of the .vbo after the general header info

[data]

The display just remains at 54.5 and -1.6.

I am using RR3.5.8b Ultimate.

Looks like it's actually working, but the difference is that the latitude and longitude are converted into decimal degrees when the data file is loaded...

003267.29451 / 60 = 54.45490 (rounds to 54.5 when displaying to 1 decimal place)
000093.38338 / -60 = -1.556389 (rounds to -1.6 when displaying to 1 decimal place)

To display the full coordinates, I'd normally use 6 or 7 decimal places, so something like this:

// Should be Latitude
DrawNumber(GetDataValue(2), 7, 400, 0, NumberColor, FontSize, AlignH_Right);

// Should be Longtitude
DrawNumber(GetDataValue(3), 7, 400, 0, NumberColor, FontSize, AlignH_Right);

Note that the second parameter for DrawNumber() is now 7 instead of 1.

Sorted. Thanks
