SendKey and LUA

[cellular55]

Hi,

I would automatically send to different add-ons, that I have on a networked PC, seveal keystrokes through the SendKey definitions I put in the wideclient.ini file.

Is it possible to send all them out at the same time through a LUA file that I could assign to a button?

Thanks for th help and best regards

Joe

Yes, you can use Lua to send any FS or FSUIPC control plus parameter (excepting the Offset controls, where there's no need because the Lua ipc library handles offsets directly). Just use the ipc.control function with the KeySend control number (1006, as listed in the FSUIPC advanced users manual) and the KeySend number, 1-255.

Or of course you can simply assign all of the KeySends to the one button by editing the FSUIPC INI file. This method would actually be faster and easier to set up.
