January 9, 20242 yr Commercial Member By customer request I figured out a way to control "uncontrollable" items, that only react to the mouse. In this case it was about the Carb Heat and Oil levers behind the yoke. Those can only be moved with the mouse, no provisions have been made by the developer to make them accessible from the outside. To solve that, I made an addon package for MSFS that injects additional code into the default interaction process, and in turn creates LVars for the buttons and levers depending on that. These LVars can then be assigned to Axis and Buttons in AAO. Of course this package should only be activated for aircraft where you really need it. There is no point in keeping it active when everything already works with the "standards" IE: B: H: K: or LVars. Please let me know if you are interested in this package, so I can decide if I should release it. For the record: these LVars are of course accessible to any other "controller tool" as well, they are not AAO specific (despite their name) Edited January 9, 20242 yr by Lorby_SI LORBY-SI
January 16, 20242 yr Hi, I think this would solve my problem with Learjet 35A by Flysimware. I can't change numbers of Altitude alerter, but the knob rotates. Only mouse wheel works.
January 19, 20242 yr Author Commercial Member The package is available on the axisandohs downloads page (way down near the end of the page) It works like this: When the package is in your Community folder it will create LVars for every button and lever that uses default Asobo logic. These LVars can then be used to operate the controls (L:AAO_BTN_xyz, Number): when set to 1 will operate the button. This is a momentary click, it will be set to 0 afterwards. (L:AAO_AXIS_xyz, Number): must be set to the appropriate axis value (Axis min = 0 Axis max = 100, or whatever the control requires) The variables can be queried from the sim with "Scripting->Read LVars from sim". They will then appear in the normal list(s) in AAO. I'd recommend disabling the addon package when you don't need it (rename the manifest.json or use a tool) Edited January 19, 20242 yr by Lorby_SI LORBY-SI
