behave

behave is a language for writing Microsoft Flight Simulator Model Behaviors.

It converts the hard-to-understand XML into a declarative language, with a powerful, imperative template system and RPN compiler.

Why?

behave was designed to replace Microsoft Flight Simulator ModelBehavior XML for many reasons:

1. XML is a terrible language to write 'code' in.
2. RPN is a relic from the early 2000s, and is extremely difficult to understand due to its stack-based nature.
3. The error reporting in the XML compiler is terrible. No really. If an error is in an included file, good luck figuring out which one. Oh? you wanted a line number? Figure it out yourself.

Getting Started

1. Download the latest version of behave from the releases.
2. Head over to the wiki to learn how to use behave in your project.
