FSUIPC 6.0 / lua oddness

[hotbso]

Hi,

while lua files are only recognized in the Add -ons\FSUIPC6 folder called modules via require

require("rwdb")

are only searched in the prepar3d\modules folder.

BTW the documentation still only mentions the Modules folder for all lua scripts.

There is currently a problem with the lua config path that I am looking into. A fix should be provided soon (hopefully later today but maybe tomorrow). In the mean-time, you could re-install FSUIPC6 in the old location, in a folder called Modules under your P3Dv5 directory (i.e. in E:\prepar3d\p3dv5\modules).

This problem has been fixed in the attached dll which will be released shortly: FSUIPC6.dll

Yes, confirmed.

Thanks for the rapid fix.
