Skalarki ACP PTT to ProSimA320 PTT ACP Gate (which requires an FSUIPC offset) that actions a vPilot ptt keystroke I think this makes sense and I will also bring with up with Skalarki as well. Paul

Thanks John @Pete Dowson Any advice here? I saw you mentioning something about a LUA script on another thread, but I can't find it now! I understand you run ProSim737, but I am sure the idea is similar if you can help. The gate is available in ProSimA320 but I need to understand how to assign an offset to a keypress in that way. Best, Paul

John Thank you for taking the time to respond. I do appreciate you're busy, and perhaps I should have been more descriptive about what I needed, but I need more than that to make what I need; I know very little about offsets. I searched here but can't find any other threads, maybe you know a thread where this has been done, or similar? Best Paul

Hello Folks I have been told it's possible to create an offset for ProSim A320 to be able to use the Skalarki ACP PTT toggle, as ProSim hasn't implemented this yet. I am trying to find the way to do this and so far can't find a solution to getting FSUIPC to do Offset to Keypress. I see there may be a need for a lua, which I'm reasonably happy with doing, but I don't know how else to get the offset setup in ProSim and FSUIPC. Some help would be really appreciated. Best regards, Paul

Pete I don't think this is hijacking the thread; but I have a quick question about the LUA Script. I am noticing that with GSX the menu that appears on the client pc doesn't (in some cases) replicate that of the main simconnect menu that appears on the curved screen. (I have this minimised as far as it can go). I especially notice that when selecting to push nose left or right, that when selected, it goes to offer the question of starting engines before pushback YES or NO. But, on the menu on the client PC via the LUA script, the menu still reads 1. NOSE LEFT or 2. NOSE RIGHT. I hope this makes some sense! Any thoughts on the cause so that I can troubleshoot? Best, Paul

Hi Pete Just an FYI. As you described - it was indeed an issue for GSX (the fact that it makes a freeze command) in the sim when pushback is initiated. I solved this by a further outside script that listens for the freeze in ProSim and cancels it when applied. Regards Paul

Hi Pete Yes - you're exactly right. It's the SimConnect menu messages. I use ProSim A320 full cockpit and I want to display GSX menu items away from the curved screen and onto the ECAM Memo area for selection by an LCD keyboard. I have successfully done that with LUA. The layer issue was sorted by adding another few lines of code to the end of the LUA Show Menu script configuration file. Would you like a copy for reference? Out of interest - are you using ProSim for your 737? I have an issue with pushback on the A320 that is causing a position freeze (and mute) in ProSim and it must be related to WideClient or the LUA because it doesn't do it when it isn't running. (Sorry to bash the thread) Best, Paul

Pete Thanks for taking the time reply. I found the solution was a focus filter code. Thanks, Paul

Hi Peter Using WideClient and the text message LUA scripts to get everything off the curved screen. It works! But - I'm overlaying the script window over the top of the ECAM Memo section of the airbus when it is in use (it has a reduced sleep time, so it's naturally not always there). The issue is I can't find a way to keep the LUA script on TOP of my ProSim A320 Display. IE; when ProSim Display is open the LUA script window runs behind it and can't be seen. Suggestions would be welcome on a solution. Great script btw. Cheers Paul
