Using action defaults files

To use action default files, you must understand how they work and how to structure the code.

Global action defaults are defined in an XML file with the 4ad extension. By default, the runtime system searches for a file named default.4ad in several directories as described in the FGLRESOURCEPATH reference topic. If no file was found, standard action default settings are loaded from the FGLDIR/lib/default.4ad file.

Action defaults files usage is related to action configuration concepts. For more details, see Configuring actions.
