Autopilot.SetSpeed can only be changed by 1 issue in Connect API

ThirdParty API
1

Hey devs,
I have been exploring Connect API and I found that every autopilot entry in the API is a fire-only command (type -1) — and when aircraft is flyign over 28000ft, the Autopilot.SetSpeed can only be changed by 1, i.e. from M0.85 to M1.85, which is inconvenient. In knots, it is correctly set to change by 1kt.

Potential solution: break Autopilot.SetSpeed into Autopilot.SetSpeedKnot and Autopilot.SetSpeedMach, instruct developers to use different API based on detected altitude.

Could you please investigate into this issue, or maybe there’s something I did not notice?

Thanks

the command Section (type -1) is only a Toggle command, if you want to use more refined input for AP use the aircraft/0/systems/autopilot/spd/target, is read/write and use m/s or Mach number, push a write command with your data and you are good to go :wink:
