You really need to state upfront which version you are modeling for. If FS9, then add this to your MakeMDL.parts.xml file:

Code:

    <part>
      <Name>door_0</Name>
        <animation>
           <Parameter>
             <Sim>
               <Variable>EXIT OPEN:0</Variable>
               <Units>percent</Units>
             </Sim>
           </Parameter>
        </animation>
    </part>
    <part>
      <Name>door_1</Name>
        <animation>
           <Parameter>
             <Sim>
               <Variable>EXIT OPEN:1</Variable>
               <Units>percent</Units>
             </Sim>
           </Parameter>
        </animation>
    </part>
    <part>
      <Name>door_2</Name>
        <animation>
           <Parameter>
             <Sim>
               <Variable>EXIT OPEN:2</Variable>
               <Units>percent</Units>
             </Sim>
           </Parameter>
        </animation>
    </part>
    <part>
      <Name>door_3</Name>
        <animation>
           <Parameter>
             <Sim>
               <Variable>EXIT OPEN:3</Variable>
               <Units>percent</Units>
             </Sim>
           </Parameter>
        </animation>
    </part>
 

Ok, Ive added the above to the MakeMDL.parts.xml file, and I've named the door R_Canopy, and tried R_Canopy01, door_01 as well, but still I cannot get it to open. I am sure it is some small thing I miss?

What did you miss? Apparently everything!

The "partname" you should use is door_1...

    <part>
      <Name></Name>

...that was, after all, the entire point of adding the above XML scripts to the MakeMDL.parts.xml file!!! 

Jake, try moving all of your custom scripts to the TOP of the MakeMDL.parts.xml file...

Since there's nothing wrong with the entries you have made for the four exits, the only conclusion is that there is something else above those entries that is FUBARed...

Actually, that is a terrific way to test your custom stuff anyway, because if you add a new script at the TOP, and then something that previously worked suddenly quits working...

...then you KNOW that you've got at error in your new script(s)!

over all the plane is comming along great, I am overhauling a few things here and there in the CFG (again) lol...mainly the camera position and minor things like that, the sounds I think work ok but I am gonna swaop them with sounds I feel fit a bit better, and I am also working out the paint schemes I had from the previous model and port them over, hopefully they will work ...will try to relocate the main thread to post more...great work on the 2.0 one though and nice paint scheme love the medical scheme!!
