[LUA - GoFlight ID]

Thanks Pete. I will try it this morning. One more question: is there a way to reload FSUIPC without shutting FSX down?

Basically I would like to make modifications and/or adding new LUA scripts while FSX is up and running.

[LUA - GoFlight ID]

Hello,

I might be missing something but I can't make a simple script working with LUA.

When I push a button on the GFP8 I want the pushback to start and the LED on.

Button #8 and LED #8. In FSUIPC I see Joystick #101 and button #7 during the assignment, so I used those numbers for my script. When I push the button nothing happens!

Any idea? The script is below...

Thanks!

------------------------------------------------------

function PushBack(offset, value)

model = GFP8

unit = 101

id = 7

gfd.SetBright(model, unit, 15)

if value == 0 then

gfd.SetLight(model, unit, id)

else

gfd.ClearLight(model, unit, id)

end

end

function SetPushBack(model, unit)

gfd.GetValues(model, unit)

if gfd.TestButton(7) then

ipc.writeUB("31F4",0)

else

ipc.writeUB("31F4",3)

end

end

event.offset("31F0", "UB", "PushBack")

event.gfd(GFP8, 101, "SetPushBack")

[Checklist on wideclient using LUA]

Thanks Pete!

[Checklist on wideclient using LUA]

Hello,

Do you think it is possible to display a checklist on a networked pc (via widefs) using LUA?

I know I can just display a text but I would like to check the status of the items and autocheck them step-by-step the buttons get pushed...

[more keys...]

Volker,

I built a cockpit (see here www.createandsolve.com) and I'm using FS Commander as GPS. It works great. I have added buttons to control directly some functions (like zoom-in/out) but I would like to control. with similar direct key combinations, stuff like:

a) Show/hide flight plan

B) Airport info

c) Map/unmap airplane

d) Info about destnation airport

e) plus a few more...

I know I can use several key combinations to get to almost all of this items but they are not user-friendly like the ones you already programmed in the software.

Can this be done?

Thanks!

Alex

Thanks Volker.

What about other additional functionalities?

Hello,

Is there any way of adding more keyboard key combinations like the "zoom-in" and "zoom-out"?

...or any idea/suggestion on how to accomplish that will be welcome!

Thanks.

[Distance question]

Hello,

Simple question: how/where do I see the distance between my current position and the final destination?

Almost all the times I get the question from ATC to communicate the position and I can't seem to find the update distance form the final destination airport...

I couldn't flight without FS Commander!

Thanks!

[GPS not on top]

Hello Everyone,

After upgrading to FS9 a strange problem happens: the GPS window doesn't want to stay "on top"!

When I turn it on it goes on the back of FS9 and in order to see it I have to minimize the FS main screen...

Any idea?

Thanks.
