July 8, 201114 yr Thanks for the great software. Seriously, very impressive.A couple of questions though:1. Will the Wilco FT Airbus volumes ever be included with an update or something?2. Assuming not, I tried following the manual and adding it myself. However, the manual seems incomplete. For example, in trying to set the EFIS range, what do i do after I see the item in Lvar monitoring? The manual kind of just stops after finding the Duke Cowl Flaps item. Ok, so I found the item, now what? How do I assign it?Thanks in advance.

July 8, 201114 yr Hi,The way I do it is to write a new function in the linda\aircrafts\xxxxx\actions.lua file.here is an example of a function setting an Lvar from the RealAir B60T :function DukeT_Ignition_L_on () ipc.writeLvar("L:ignSwL", 2) DspShow ("IgnL", "On")endThe first line here writes to the Lvar, the second line shows a message for a short while in the display.The second line isn't necessary, but helps give feedback to the user.Then you can assign that function to a button in Linda.Its worth noting that just because you find a Lvar that reacts when you do somehing doesn't mean that you can use it to control the plane.In the iFly 737, for instance, I found some Lvars that can toggle the F/D switches, they work fine, but do not update the switch positions in the virtual cockpit only the 2d cockpit, so I ended up using FSUIPC mouse macros for most stuff since I couldn't figure out how to find FSX controls that did the work.Btw. I am only a newbie at this, do not necessarily believe all I say :PHelge Helge Rasmussen
July 8, 201114 yr 1. Will the Wilco FT Airbus volumes ever be included with an update or something?I have kind of started on it for the A320 but I'm not sure when I can finish it though... But I'm sure it will be available eventually.Allan Regards, Allan Jensen
