Hi John, this may sound a little pedantic, but with my example from above, the lua ist still not autostarting with the latest FSUIPC7. [Auto] 1=Lua PMCO_FNX32X ;does not start, space seems to prevent it... 2=Lua PMCO_PMDG73X; does start

Just coming back to say thanks for including this!
-
It would be much appreciated. Thanks John.

Hi, from older posts I thought it would be possible to add comments to the ends of lines in the FSUIPC7.ini using the semicolon. I had to learn that the following code snippet only autostarts the second lua script without comment but not the first one. Is this to be expected? Can comments in that section be supported in the future? It's certainly not a big thing but I had some support requests for my shared lua script because of that. Thanks! [Auto] ;just a test 1=Lua PMCO_FNX32X ;does not start 2=Lua PMCO_PMDG73X

native support for long and double press
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
I understand. ðĪ -
Hi John, I know you can do this already with Lua, and actually I'm doing it succesfully for some time now, but it would be even better to have it natively included in the GUI for button and key assignments. I'm close to the point of running into max number of Lua scripts, lol. ðĪŠ I guess this would be quiet a substancial undertaking, but there is no harm in asking, right?

Missing LVAR after 3066 Lvars loaded (since SU11)

Thanks John! This is awesome. One problem less. -
Missing LVAR after 3066 Lvars loaded (since SU11)
NovemberUniform replied to michel78320's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
That's my concern, as well. I don't have high hopes they come to this in the foreseeable future, with all the stuff they are working on. Are they even aware of this? They have a voting system, as far as I know. Is there already a thread I could upvote? Not knowing any of the internals, I ask myself, what consequences it would have to increase the number of accessible LVARs in FSUIPC / WASM module to a limit, that can hardly be reached in the future, like factor 10 of what we have now (please don't shoot me for writing this ð). Is this even possible? Would it impact performance? It's good to have a work around with restarting the sim for the time being. Thanks for the info. I just came across this issue when the A310 arrived and I flew something else than just the Fenix A320. -
German umlaut à -> no key action

Hi John, I can confirm, that à key is working now in the sim, too. ð -
German umlaut à -> no key action
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
I needed to assign the keys without an active profile first (because I usually use profiles). Makes sense, I guess. my ini: (order is Ã, Ã, Ã) [Keys] 2=N192,8,1061,0 -{'@key: Press=engine 1 autostart }- 4=N186,8,1062,0 -{;:key: Press=engine 2 autostart }- 6=N222,8,1063,0 -{#~key: Press=engine 3 autostart }- Here is the log.

German umlaut à -> no key action
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. You are right, you provided an alternative solution and I thank you for that. That was what I was wondering about. Nothing more, nothing less. -
German umlaut à -> no key action
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Thanks for letting me know. If there is nothing you can do about it, I will work around this by using different key. Strange though, that à and à are indeed working. -
Hi John, beeing german I use a german QWERTZ keyboard which has umlauts Ã, Ã, à (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_keyboard_layout). I want to use these keys (among many others) to assign FSUIPC controls - lua scripts in this case. à and à work just fine, but à will not trigger the assigned action. You can assign something to à in the FSUIPC key assignments window, it is shown there as #~key, but the action is not triggered in the sim. There is also no log entry if I enable key logging. à and à actions are listed in the log. I also crosschecked the lua script, using it with à or à is working fine. It seems, the umlaut à is not working. I know it was working in earlier versions of FSUIPC like FSUIPC5. I'm even pretty sure it was working with FSUIPC7, some versions before this last. I've just updated to the latest version of FSUIPC7 today and it's not working. I know a keyboard has many keys and it's not high priority, but maybe there is an easy fix for this. Thanks in advance!

Method to read FSUIPC install location?
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Can you please repeat the exact string of the path you are looking for. -
Method to read FSUIPC install location?
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
I can only read it succesfully (on my PC), if I use the path I have shown. It's not working with the path you provided. -
Method to read FSUIPC install location?
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Hi John, I need to get back to you on this. On my Windows 11 installation the path is this: "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\FSUIPC7". Is this to be expected? Do you know what are the different path versions from Win7 until Win11 (both 32 and 64bit versions)? Thanks! -
Method to read FSUIPC install location?
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Thanks John! Much appreciated. -
Hi, I'm thinking about writing a simple installer for my Lua plug-in. If I remember correctly, the user can freely choose an install location for FSUIPC7. Is there a way to read that location, maybe from the registry? Thanks in advance.
-
Thanks John. I will check.

I have a similar question. I made a lua plugin that I also shared with a limited number of users from the community. It needs the WAPI to run, because there is interaction with LVARs of the add-on aircraft it was made for. On my computer, everything is running fine. In the log file, I can see the WAPI loading and connecting on startup. There are users, where the loading of WAPI is apparently not happening (not in the log), altough they tell me it is installed and presumably running, if they go to the FSUIPC "Add-ons" tab -> "WASM". What can prevent the WAPI from loading? If it is listed as running in the "Add-ons" tab -> "WASM", why it doesn't show in the log? Is there more to it? Thanks for helping.

WND: Data entry with keyboard problematic
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
I did, and with another addition, this is working fine now. With mouse clicks between or during data entry, MSFS could regain focus. So I put the line ipc.control(1156) -- set focus in a event.timer(20, "callback_fcn") callback function, to keep the focus on FSUIPC during data entry. This works very good now! Yes, 100%. Also, no problems with long key presses anymore. I'm happy, and I can now concentrate on other parts of my plugin. ð -

Sounds excellent. Your efforts are very much appreciated. I will have a look as soon as possible. -

WND: Data entry with keyboard problematic
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
Well, this is essentially the same thing that I did. It won't bring me any further, I guess. I then tried to create events for mouse actions to more or less dial in my values with the mousewheel, instead of typing them with the keyboard, but the events didn't get triggered. Is this a known issue? event.mousewheeltrap("fMouseWheelScroll") -- event for mouse-wheel movement event.mouselefttrap("fMouseLeftClick") -- event for mouse-click left -
WND: Data entry with keyboard problematic
NovemberUniform replied to NovemberUniform's topic in FSUIPC7 MSFS
I sent you the files. I think the biggest problem lies in the MSFS keys not being trapped. Whatever the problem is with longer key presses, I can live with that. Just don't press the keys longer than usual. In the meantime, I will have a look at your proposed alternative for ipc.ask(). Maybe it works better for what I need.
