Using LUA Script made for FSUIPC

Recommended Posts

Hi Andrew,

to set VSpeed Data in my MJ Dash8 Pro I use theLUA script V-Speed Calculator LUA 1.2 from ttp://www.twitch.tv/mrroper_75

I have to assign a button or key via FSUIPC calling the lua function "lua Q400VSpeeds" out of the FS Control List.

What is the easiest way to assign this via LINDA?

I tried copy and paste into the user.lua of the MJ Q400 but no luck none of the functions start the script in the right way.

 

Here is the content of the lua script


Vspeeds = {}
Vfri = {}
vlanding = {}
minWeight = 39500
maxWeight = 64000
minAlt = 0
maxAlt = 10000
weightDiv = 4500
altDiv = 2000
indexMultiplier = 12
flapsMultiplier = 84
landingFlapsMultiplier = 7
tempOffset = 6
ReadSuccess = 9991999
ReadFail = 9992999

	local file = io.open(filename)

	for n=1, 252 do
		local v1, vr, v2
		v1 = file:read("*n")
		vr = v1
		file:read(1)
		v2 = file:read("*n")
		file:read(1)
		Vspeeds[#Vspeeds+1] = {["v1"] = v1, ["vr"] = vr, ["v2"] = v2}
	end
	for y=1, 7 do
		local vf5, vf10, vf15, vclmb

		vf5 = file:read("*n")
		file:read(1)
		vf10 = file:read("*n")
		file:read(1)
		vf15 = file:read("*n")
		file:read(1)
		vclmb = file:read("*n")
		file:read(1)
		Vfri[#Vfri+1] = {["vf5"] = vf5,["vf10"] = vf10,["vf15"] = vf15, ["vclmb"] = vclmb}
		
	end

		local vapp, vreff

		vapp = file:read("*n")

Hi Roland

 

I am not experienced in Macros but I will have a look at your question when I get time. Unfortunately, I am extremely busy with my 'day job' and can not give any attention to it at the moment.
