  1. Thanks very much. All events occur at flight starts from the main menu as well as restart from the Esc -> Home action
  2. From the wnd. window library.
  3. Is there a table or graphic somewhere showing the colors in the 3 byte color schema? Or a conversion capability from the 6 byte color. Thanks
  4. Wow, thanks. Very appreciated.
  5. Thanks, it may take a few days.
  6. The Lua I have is to display radio altitude on final approach. To practice landings, I restart the flight (usually using by using Esc then restart). Obviously in a while ... do ... end until on the ground. I can use the home keypad button (or assign home to a Joystick button) to restart the flight. Can use an event.button() command to capture the restart. I just can't figure out how to reenter the loop. Must I put it inside a function?
  7. I'm a bit confused. The Advanced User document states that Auto.C510 restarts the auto.start LUA when an aircraft is changed. Does it also start again if the flight with the same aircraft restarts? "to be executed, in order, automatically whenever the current aircraft is changed (or, indeed, first loaded), or a specific named aircraft (or Profile) is loaded."
  8. I am trying to find out any time a new flight starts in MSFS. A flight stars from the main menu after choosing the aircraft and airports and select Ready to Fly. Or one can restart a flight using the Esc key and selecting the Restart button. Thus starting a flight. I want to know when this occurs so a Lua plugin I created can reset its start logic. Thanks
  9. I'm trying to determine when an aircraft is started or restarted (to reset Lua logic). Your offset status has a "Ready to Fly" flag (offset 0x3364). Zero if ready to fly. Also, the internet indicates that flag 16 - Ingame-RTC, is set when an aircraft is ready to fly. In your experience, which is more useful? Or is there another method to determine when an aircraft flight has started? Thanks
  10. Hi John, I've added an add-on to help me in the final feet to landing. I can't, however, seem to position the window where I want. No matter what I do, it's in the upper left of the MSFS main window. I started with: wd = wnd.open("MSFS Landing", WND_FIXED, 700, 50, 150, 50) and the window was in the upper left. Then I read that with WND_FIXED use ext.position. I tried that (see attached). Still didn't move. Can you help? Landing.txt
  11. Thank you
  12. Thanks again. Aren't these controls aircraft independent? Does offset 0x31FC update? I'm trying to emulate Toolbar Pushback with buttons. To get away from using a mouse. The tool has forward, backward, steering and speed for the tug.
  13. Thanks, I'm flying the Cockspur PH100 Phenom. Very nice aircraft. Not consistent with how switches, buttons, knobs are bound.
