Output Speech Assistant Log to Text?

[ChalkOne 0]

I love Pilot2ATC but since I do most of my flying in  VR, I sometimes struggle with recalling what a read back to ATC needs to be, especially for more complicated procedures. The Speech log window is excellent for that but since I’m inside my HMD, I don’t really have a way to see that. 
 

I use Windows Mixed Reality so also can’t easily pin or bring inside just the assistant window. However, if the text could be written to a text file, I could write a simple app that reads it and lets me view it in the  VR cockpit. 
 

Thoughts? Has anyone done this? Is there a better solution? 
 

thx

It can already do that, and what i use is the following flywithlua script which shows the conversation in x-plane:

If you just want the text logged to a file, Go to P2ATC config -> speech tab -> enable "conversation text file path" and set it to where you want it stored.

I use this facility with a Lua plug-in for FSUIPC (actually WideClient) to display the live scrolling conversation text, colour coded, on a small screen in my cockpit.

The Lua plug-in for this is supplied in the Lua examples pack with FSUIPC ("AllTexts.lua" - instructions in file). A parameter has to be added to WideClient.INI (or FSUIPC INI) to ask it to monitor the conversation file and send it to the display plug-in.
