I made a backup, so no problem here.
-
Same. It also gets deleted.
-
I did that John, but to no avail. Defender still deletes the .exe.
-
MS Defender deletes this .exe file. I think I wait for the release.

Thank you John!

John, no worries, I can work around the input event issue. Take your time to find the CTD.
Karl

Please take your time, John.

If I trigger an input event like in the screenshot, assigned to a button it's ok and the mixture lever of the Carenado Dakota moves to mid position (every position from 0.0 to 1.0 works) and the linput event log shows:
253672 InputEvent received: ENGINE_MIXTURE_LEFT=8192.000000 (param=';FLOAT64')
If I do it from a Lua script, nothing happens.
ipc.execInputEvent("ENGINE_MIXTURE_LEFT", 0.5)
The log shows:
257828 InputEvent received: ENGINE_MIXTURE_LEFT=0.000000 (param=';FLOAT64')
There's probably something I do not understand.

That's fine, John. I will parse the log file in the meantime.

Such a function would be very nice to have.

It's easy.

Hmmm... I could read the .log file and parse the input events FSUIPC found.
-
Ok.
The script does not end, so that's fine.
Maybe there's a way to check if a specific input event is valid for the aircraft loaded?
Good luck with your PC!

I get errors logged if I send input events that are not subscribed. Here's an example:
646938 *** LUA Error: C:\FSUIPC7\l_kaha_lua.lua:706: Error sending Input Event 'AS530_COM_VLOC_Khz'
Can I switch error logging off for this? Sometimes I send multipüle input events so it works for different aircraft. Else I would need to have an if else construct which means I have to touch the Lua file for each new aircraft.

Ok, Axis Steering Set is fine.
Thank you,
Karl

Thank you, I will try that.

Ah...I think you are misunderstanding FSUIPC's rudder/tiller blending facilities. These are intended to be used when both the rudder and tiller are assigned to the same axis.
It doesn't make sense blending these if separate axes are used as there are already separate values for rudder and tiller.I see. So what would I have to do to get the following:
- nose wheel steers with tiller but not with rudder
- rudder deflects with pedals but not with tiller
This works if I bind the tiller to the in sim "Nose Wheel Steering Axis" control. I also tested with the standard Cessna Citation Longitude.

Ok, this now working I still have troubles to set up the tiller.
I want the tiller to move the front wheel but also the rudder. The rudder should move least at low ground speed and most at high ground speed. Therefor I use
MaxSteerSpeed = Q
The rudder shows max deflection at low speed and least deflection at high speed, however.
Also, if I change anything in the steering axis calibration the MaxSteerSpeed parameter gets reset to =60

Sorry John, gust lock was on.
I'm gettin old.......

Somehow I run into problems when setting up the tiller. I'm using the DHC-4 Caribou for my tests.
All button and axis assignments in my setup are done with FSUIPC, I have none in MSFS. As soon as I assign the tiller axis the rudder stops moving. What am I missing here? For now I don't want any blending between front wheel and rudder (will set this up later per aircraft).

Perfect! Thank you John.

John, I'm not familiar with simvars, so I probably need your help here.
From the FSUIPC manual I learned that I need to have a file named myOffsets.txt. This is my try:
// offset, size, simvar, type, units [, w] 0x66C0, 4, object_class, S16, Number
I don't know the max length of the simvar.
Anyway, I get error messages in the console.
I found a simvar CATEGORY
https://docs.flightsimulator.com/html/Programming_Tools/SimVars/Miscellaneous_Variables.htm
If I use that one there are no errors in the console but the string is empty.
Could you please guide me how to use that?
Thanks, Karl

I think this is now something that together with a certain trim speed setting in the tablet works quite nicely.
Thank you for your help!

Ok, thank you.
Axis to Input Event?
in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Posted
It would be nice to be able to bind an axis to an Input Event and being able to specify to convert to what lower and upper limit
0.0 to 1.0
0 to 100
-16384 to 16383
As an example, the Carenado uses an Input Event for it's mixture axis. Only using the Input Event the engine can be started from external hardware. Using the normal mixture axis one needs to touch the mixture control with the mouse.
There are also Input Events used for lights and for cold/hot air intake levers.
Any chance to get this in a future version? For now I'm using Lua scripts.
