cos: "Integer Required"?!?!?!?

[moonman]

It appears that the cause of this problem was indirect.

I input something incorrect as an argument to an xplane sdk function
and the cos/integer type error followed.

Thanks for the help. The diagnostic functions I learned in this thread
will be very helpful in the future.
