[I want to be able to inject possible failures into p3dv4.5]

Would LUA and FSUIPC registered,  work for something like this?

Say I want a 2% chance of something going wrong but I want an option to increase that number.

[can I use LUA to read/write to FSUIPC/FS?]

I'm looking for a simple way to read information from flight sim (p3d v4.1) without have to try to learn C++, etc.

Can I do that with a LUA script? can I write to Flightsim as well with a LUA script?

[MakeRwys help]

That program doesn't give me what I need.

 

Is there anyway to generate a delimited text file that would have the following:

 

ICAO CODE, AIRPORT NAME, CITY, STATE, COUNTRY

 

all I could find that was of any use to me was R4.txt it had the runway code and the name of the airport and the country that it belonged to.. it would be so helpful to get the state at least.

 

Thanks

[I want a fuel pump pop up window. can a LUA script do this?]

Hi,

 

Alternatively you could use FS Refuel: http://www.sprucesim.com/products.html

This tool does a nice job. You also can run it on a second PC, if you have one in your configuration.

I wanted to ask you. Does this automatically pop up when you pull into a fuel parking spot in FSX? Does it disable the automatic fueling to 100%?

Other than that, it looks pretty neat.

Thanks

[I want a fuel pump pop up window. can a LUA script do this?]

thanks the both of you.

[I want a fuel pump pop up window. can a LUA script do this?]

I'm trying to put something together so that when I'm parked at a fuel pump:

 

1. it won't automatically fill me up to 100%

 

2. a window pops up in full screen mode and asks me how much fuel I want in gallons and/or pounds. or gives me an option to use a custom fuel program (for planes like PMDG, MAJESTIC, A2A, etc)

 

 

can a LUA script do this? or would I need more advanced programming.

 

 

actually all I really want, the bare minimums would be to at least be able to drive to a pump station in FSX and not have it automatically fill me up.. 

[lua script for stopping autorefueling in FSX?]

is there anyway to write a lua script to stop the auto refueling in fsx?

 

it would be even cooler if when you park at a refueling spot in fsx to have a menu pop up and allow you to put a percentage of fuel or gallons or whatever...

 

 

 

I'm keeping fuel expenses and some airports have full service... this will be simulated by using the truck or using the menu  and self serve.. which will be the above.

[rain starts and stops]

so I'm sitting in rain and it rains then stops for about 1 second then starts to rain for about 4 sec.. and then on and off on and off

 

is there somethign I'm not setting up correctly?

 

thanks

FSX

Win 7 64

latest FSUIPC version.

 

ignore.. I found the cause.. it was coming from FSINN.. just telling FSinn to stop updating wx solved the problem.. sorry

[lua disable gps?]

can a lua script disable the gps?

if so, what are the variables or whatever that calls the gps?

[MakeRyws.exe help...]

[MakeRyws.exe help...]

is there anyway to use this to extract airport name, ICAO , name of airport, city, state, country, region, etc etc.. all in one nice csv file?

also you mention to use />0 for all rwys.. how do I do this? under win 7

[assigning a key and found this..?!]

I noticed that a command that you can assign to is called

Bail Out

what does this do and how does it work.?

I assigned it to my b key and went up in the trike and tried to bail out but nothing happened!
