Spy MSFS 2020

[Guilli]

Hello,
 

Can you help me ... I don't know how to do something simple :

For exemple : User clic on zoom mfd button in simulator cockpit. I want to reproduce this action by the click of a joystick button.

I imagine a way to "spy" the simulator and know what to send to the simulator when joystick button preesed,

I search with https://hubhop.mobiflight.com/presets/ But this doesn't help me,

This really depends on the function/control. Generally you would use logging - set logging for Events (Log -> Events) and open the logging console (Log -> Open Console).
If you see lots of events logged when not doing anything (many MSFS aircraft continually emit certain events) then you should use the DontLogThese ini parameter to stop such events being logged (see Advanced User guide). Then click the button/switch/etc in the VC and see if anything is logged, and if so you can use that. You can also log Input Events with a corresponding ini parameter of DontLogTheseIE.

If standard (or known custom) controls are not used, then you can try inspecting the model behavior to see how how button/switch is implemented - see the following on how to do this:

What aircraft/avionics system? There are many presets for this, e.g.
   for the G1000 in MSFS2020:  AS1000_MFD_RANGE_DEC and AS1000_MFD_RANGE_INC
   for the G1000 in MSFS2024: MFD RANGE ZOOM - Dec and MFD RANGE ZOOM - Inc
   for the ATR: MSATR MFD CPT RANGE INC + and MSATR MFD CPT RANGE DEC -
   etc

So it really depend on the aircraft / avionics system being used.
