FSUIPC Unable to Detect TFDI MD-11 Spoilers Armed

[Omega38K]

Hello, I use A Pilot's life v2 and arming the spoiler is very important part of the grading system. From my understanding, A Pilots Life reads the values sent to FSUIPC. I flown two flight so far, and both fail to detect spoilers being armed. I have the latest update installed for FSUIPC, TFDI, and A pilot's Life. Please help!

Is APLv2 using offset 0x0BCC to detect if the spoilers are armed or not? Can you try logging that offset (Log->Offsets. as U32) to see if the value in that offset changes to 1 when armed.
If not, then that will be the issue. You would need to determine what is holding the spoilers armed state if it is not the simvar SPOILERS ARMED, and add that to a spare offset and then spoof the reading from offset 0x0BCC to the new offset. I can help with this if needed.

First, log offset 0x0BCC and see if it changes or not. If it changes, then you need to contact support for APL.
If it doesn't, then look at the available lvars to see if any of them look appropriate (Add-ons->WASM->List Lvars), and if so check the value (i.e. arm/disarm and see if the value changes)
If you find an lvar that holds this state, you can then add that to a spare/free FSUIPC offset - to do this, see the Advanced User guide, section Adding Lvars to Offsets on page 47.
Once it is in an offset, you can then write a lua script (which should be auto-ran in your MD-11 profile) to spoof offset 0x0BCC to the one holding the actual armed value, via writing to offset 0x0024, There is a sample script provided that shows how to do this (liar.lua), which you can use and modify for your own needs.
