mustangsim Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 Hi All, I am trying to write a LUA script to to use Joy inputs to control the volume on my Mustangs audio panel in FSX. Here is the snippet of code from the xml <MouseArea id="VolumeControl"> <FloatPosition>34.000,794.000</FloatPosition> <Size>113,104</Size>- <MouseArea id="VolumeDecrease"> <FloatPosition>0.000,0.000</FloatPosition> <Size>56,104</Size> <CursorType>DownArrow</CursorType>- <MouseClick id="MouseClick"> <Script>9 (>K:THROTTLE4_SET)</Script> <ClickType>LeftSingle</ClickType> </MouseClick>- <Tooltip id="Tooltip"> <DefaultScript>Music Volume Decrease (%((L:fuckyoaudio,numbers))%!d!%%)</DefaultScript>[/CODE]Since this writes to K: and not an L: i'm not sure how to do it.<Script>9 (>K:THROTTLE4_SET)</Script> will decrease and <Script>8 (>K:THROTTLE4_SET)</Script> will Increase itCan LUA send this command? Mouse Macro couldn't do it. Maybe use the Mouse ID area shown above in the code? Not sure if it works that way.Thanks,Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Since this writes to K: and not an L: i'm not sure how to do it. <Script>9 (>K:THROTTLE4_SET)</Script> will decrease and <Script>8 (>K:THROTTLE4_SET)</Script> will Increase it Throttle4 Set is a normal FS control, the "K" stands for "Key Event" (the internal names for FS controls start "KEY_...". I think this dates back to when they were only keyboard controls). So, just send it using ipc.control(<number>, <parameter>). The parameters will be the 9 or 8 and you'll find the control numbers in the List of Controls in the FSUIPC Doecuments folder. Alternatively, instead of using Lua, you could simply assign direct to Throttle4 set in the FSUIPC Buttons and Switches option tab.
