LUA and offset

[gardan]

Hello,

If an LUA script exists for an add on, does this mean it that there are offsets (FSUIPC) for this add on.

LUA script for example AirbusX of Gender

If so, how to find these offsets

Thank you for your reply and Merry Christmas to all

No. Lua scripts can do almost anything. Whether they access offsets or press buttons or send keystrokes is only determined by the code therein.

LUA script for example AirbusX of Gender

Very few add-on aircraft use FSUIPC these days, especially on FSX. The offsets normally available in FSUIPC apply to FS internals, not add-on internals. Most add-on features have to be accessed via keystrokes or local panel variables ("L:Vars"), though sometimes, if the gauges are written in C/C++, mouse macros work.
