FSUIPC7 support for multiple keyboards

[NickXL]

I'm planning to use two keyboards in my FS2020 setup. The idea is to assign different actions to the same key (e.g. 'A') on the two keyboards.

Does FSUIPC support multiple keyboards?

FSUIPC uses normal Windows facilities to recognise key presses, and all keyboards look the same through Windows. So the answer is yes, but the keys will be the same.

You might be able to open it as a HID using the HID facilities in the Lua plug-in com library. Then it would be a matter of decoding the input you might get. I've never tried reading a keyboard directly like that.
