Error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol _sscanf alphabuggy1 D:\orbiter100830\Orbitersdk\samples\MBATEST buggy D:\orbiter100830\Orbitersdk\samples\MBATEST buggy\UMmuSDK.lib(UMmuSDK.obj) 1

I am stumped. I am trying to recompile my MBA stuff. But for some reason this project give this error.

It's all said in the error message: You are missing the library that has the symbol _sscanf.

Newer Visual Studio (>VS 2015) do not include these legacy features anymore on default, so you have to add legacy_stdio_definitions.lib to your linker files.

You could also add: #pragma comment (lib, "legacy_stdio_definitions.lib") into one of the source files to have it added by the linker as well.

Thanks. But I wonder why some compile using the same Ummu sdk? Yes this is VS2019.
I did this and now it works:

#define ORBITER_MODULE
#include "orbitersdk.h"
#include "ALPHABUGGYUMMUFUEL.h"
#include "OrbiterSoundSDK40.h"
#pragma comment (lib, "legacy_stdio_definitions.lib")

When the symbol is not needed it does not have to be linked.
