About the error message 'first fixed command invalid'

[Kevin Surminski]

You will get this error if in your fly file you have a fixed command then nothing after it. e.g.

imperial

[recordHistory]=50

[2256]=1

takeoff

 climb   400

waitClimb 200

flyTo  ( 1000, 1000)

flyTo ( 1000, -1000)

flyTo (-1000,-1000)

flyTo (-1000, 1000)

circuit (0, 0), 0, 0

repeat -1

 

fixed

To get rid of this error, add a pattern after the fixed command. e.g.

imperial

[recordHistory]=50

[2256]=1

takeoff

 climb   400

waitClimb 200

flyTo  ( 1000, 1000)

flyTo ( 1000, -1000)

flyTo (-1000,-1000)

flyTo (-1000, 1000)

circuit (0, 0), 0, 0

repeat -1

 

fixed

// define a right-orbit holding pattern

flyTo ( 500, 500)
flyTo ( 500,-500)
flyTo (-500,-500)
flyTo (-500, 500)
