How can I trigger an external action from within the driver control file?

Hello,

I want to trigger an action from within the driver control files that is not an standard output (throttle/steering/clutch etc). Basically I want to do some minimaneuvers to achieve a certain vehicle state, then activate a parking lock torque in the gearbox, then deactivate it and continue the simulation.

Of course I could use some STEP(time) functions in the torque expression to activate the torque at the right moment, but that solution wouldn't be general for different driver control files . Any ideas on how to trigger such an action from within the driver control file?

Thanks

Unfortunately you cannot do this as you would like .

Several customers are asking for this, (in artifact ADMS-52087), and it seems like we are getting some traction on this, but do not take this as a promise!

Unfortunately I do not think the minimaneuver_id is available as a variable either (just as a request), as that would be a nice workaround. So for now you are pretty left out with just time or other variables to change a variable or to trigger a sensor.
