Lua Script for taxi clearance / STATE_TAXI_FOR_TAKEOFF

[Metall4You]

Hello

i would like to start a wav file after i got the taxi clearance. is there an offset that i can query for the status? I found the following script for the pusback. 
can I change that with the appropriate offset?

i found the following: STATE_TAXI_FOR_TAKEOFF

Thank you for your answers

function vlc()
    checkiftrue=1
    sound.path("G:\\Sound\\Briefings")
    sound.play("737_Crew_Taxi.wav")
    event.cancel("vlc")
end

function checkPushback()
    if checkiftrue==0 then
        event.control(66483,"vlc")
    end
end

checkiftrue=0

checkPushback()

 

kind regards

Ramon

No, sorry, as this is just a message from ATC. There is no 'status' of the aircraft for this.

Hi John

Many thanks for your Answer. 

Can I check when the pushback is finished and then wait with a sleep for ca. 10 sec. and then play the wav file?

Kind Regards

You can try that, using offset 0x31F0. Try logging that offset first to check its holding the correct state for the aircraft you are using. You can start a timer to call a function to play the wav when the offset value changes from 0,1 or 2 to 3 (pushback off).
