Hi Pete, Thanks for your response, I overcome the problem using the method that Paul suggested. What confused me was that the LUA Plug-Ins.pdf document states "FSUIPC allows up to 256 simultaneously running Lua programs, each independently running in their own FS thread." The warning that you suggest seems like a very good idea. John

Thanks for that Paul, I will do just that, I was aware you could use a single file but I guess as I had not considered that that would be a better way. I thought it would be easier to manage when things did not work as expected. But I will take your advice and give that a go. Thanks again John

I have been working on this issue this evening and I seem to be able to replicate the problem quite consistently I started with a clean installation of FSUIPC (Version 4.929).

(x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\WideServer.log C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\WideServer0.log If I now open the drop down menu in the Button & Switches page under "Controls sent when button pressed" then I can only see my lua files up to Lua B200CLAutofthrTs so the files in bold are not listed. I can get round this by editing the FSUIPC.ini file manually but its a pain to keep doing. Am I right in assuming that there is no limit to the number of LUA files you can have? Again any help anyone can give would be appreciated. John

I know this thread is a little old now but I wondered if anyone knows why this happens. I have added around 100 key switch actions using LUA files without a problem and then for no apparent reason not all the LUA files are now not shown in the drop down from "Control sent when button pressed" list. I have checked that all the file name lengths are 16 characters or less so I am happy that that is not the cause. The list itself misses some 26 file names from those available. It is quite possible this due to something I have done but I do not seem to be able to fix it. Any help appreciated. John.
