Jet-Pack (IPACS) Hello, I found a section in the code of King Air C90
<[bool][HasAdvancedVerticalNavigation] [false]>
, when I change "false" to "true", the "path" when deploying the vertical navigation becomes "path_fmc". Is there any difference between the two modes?
Advanced vertical navigation capabilities

The advanced vertical navigation is a tag for airplanes that have a VNAV climb and cruise capability. Usually these aircraft also have auto throttle. Advanced VNAV is armed as vertical mode and can engage before the top of descent or when not on the vertical profile where as the non-adv. VNAV is armed in place of an approach mode and only activates when you pass through the vertical path.

OK! We all know that the vertical navigation of the CRJ900 can only be activated during final approach. So, can it be turned into advanced vertical navigation by adding some code? Or does this feature require additional modeling?

You can make anything you like in Aerofly. You could add fly by wire to the CRJ and auto throttles if you wanted to. All planes in Aerofly are pieced together from the same TMD building blocks so there is no limit to what you can change or add.
But that doesn't mean it's realistic. The real world CRJ does not have VNAV descent if I remember correctly.

You overestimate my abilities. Currently I can only modify very small functionality. I mean, do you have time to teach me how to change the capture range of vertical navigation in crj900? Or give me some suggestions in the direction?

That is hard coded in the autopilot. There are hundreds if not thousands of small details like that in the autopilot code which can't be adjusted from the outside. It's quite an advanced autopilot

Well, with your words, I will give up completely!

That's why the fuel system isn't finished yet, because anything involving the fuel system would have to be recoded, and gosh, that would be a huge amount of work!
