Thanks. Did not know that there is some additional pre-processing by AAO prior to sending it to WSH. So yeah - then it makes sense and I will rework my scripts to not run into any problems later.

JavaScript is not very strict - same seems to be true for Jscript which was there a little earlier. - the “var” is not needed, same for the semicolon - the === and !== is a comparison that also checks for the correct type, the == and != are also possible but omitting the type check. I don’t know if the type checking works in Jscript - “interval” is not reserved and indeed, the AaoCmd.setInterval() seems to return a string (seems to be something like a uuid) Great to read that there is at least a WSH exception and that this will be made available in the next version. I will provide you with my proof of purchase later this weekend so I can give it a try. Thanks again for your great support!

Thanks for the reply - I see that there is just no support for this by WSH. Regarding the code: I just spotted the wrong log-command. Besides this and the typo, I am using this in my project to clear an already running interval started in another script using AaoCmd.setInterval(). Any other hints what’s wrong?

I am talking about my own variables in the jscript. For example: (WSH:jscript|AaoEntry|ASYNC) function AaoEntry() { interval = (L:A320CA_INTERVAL, String) if (iinterval != '') { // <<< here is a typo! "iinterval" instead of "interval" AaoCmd.AaoCmd.log('stopping interval='+interval); AaoCmd.clearInterval(interval) } } In this case, spotting the type in line #4 is easy. But imagine a jscript script with much more lines. Finding these type of errors is a nightmare as the script just stops executing after line #3 and you have to add logs to narrow down where the issue is located. I hope this will explain the problem. In this example I could have used (L:A320CA_INTERVAL) instead of a variable but the same issue exists for e.g. function calls, etc.

Hi Lorby_SI, thanks again for your fast and detailed help. I really appreciate it a lot. I already use AaoCmd.log as a workaround to narrow down the location potential issues. I have hoped there is a better approach available. But finding typos for e.g. variable names is really hard work with that approach. Just out of curiocity: How does jscript be compiled or sent to the sim? Does this provide any output that could probably be of use? Again - thanks a lot for your help. This is really great.

During development of a jscript script, the script may contain syntax errors (eg typos in variables etc) that prevent the script to complete. Is there some logging available that makes it easier to locate the issue or do I need to insert manual log statements to narrow down the location of the issue? Thanks for your help.

Great - thanks!

I would like to use the SPEAK command within a jscript script. To goal is to speak a generated string. Any ideas how this could be accomplished? My try that does not work: (WSH:jscript|AaoEntry|ASYNC) function AaoEntry(){ text = 'Hello' SPEAK(text) }

Thanks a lot for the quick response. So far I only have some experience with scripting so I probably go this way. Need to check how to forward the z axis values to the Fenix tiller. The rest should be ok.

I am having a strange issue with my stick. When giving pitch input it gives me a little input on the z-axis as well. As the z-axis is mapped to the tiller on the Fenix, this does not hurt most of the time. However during takeoff, pitch down is required until 100 knots and this is where the problem is. My idea was to mask the z-axis input in a way that as soon as TO-thrust is set, the input of the z-axis will be ignored. Is this something that can be realized using AxisAndOhs? Any help/ideas are highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot for the quick help. I knew I screwed up on the RPN...

I do not seem to get a simple script running using AAO for MSFS 2024. What do I want to achive: I have three different variables ((L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT1, Number), (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT2, Number) and (A:BRAKE PARKING POSITION, bool)). If all values of them are 1, I would like to call script A and all other cases call script B. But even checking all variable values using the AND-operator does not work: (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT1, Number) 1 == && (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT2, Number) 1 == && (A:BRAKE PARKING POSITION, bool) 1 Using the script editor's debug, this expression does not give me any result other than (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT1, Number) 1 == && (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT2, Number) 1 == && (A:BRAKE PARKING POSITION, bool) 1 However, omitting the &&-operator gives the expected result: (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT1, Number) 1 == (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT2, Number) 1 == (A:BRAKE PARKING POSITION, bool) 1 Output of the debug window: (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT1, Number) 1 == (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT2, Number) 1 == (A:BRAKE PARKING POSITION, bool) 1 1 1 == 1 1 == 0 1 1 But using this expression together with an if-statement does not work. Regardless of the variables's values, it always calls "Script_On" (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT1, Number) 1 == (L:S_OH_ELEC_BAT2, Number) 1 == (A:BRAKE PARKING POSITION, bool) 1 == 1 if{ (CALL:Script_On) } els{ (CALL:Script_Off) } Any ideas what I am missing here? Thanks a lot for your help.

Thanks for your help. I will try looking into conversations or the approach for using button assignments with voice using a supplied grammar. It might get complex though. Great that you consider integrating grammars into the checklist system 🙂 Greetings, Holger

I would like to create interactive checklists where the checklist item is read and I need to respond via voice. The voice recognition should just accept valid answers. This works very good for simple answers like Item: "GEAR PINS & COVERS", expected answer: "Removed" [*removed*](SPEAK:Gear pins and Covers) But how do I do it for more detailed replys like: Item: "TO Speeds & Thrust", expected answer: something like "V1 One Two Five, VR One Two Five, V2 One Two Nine, Flex Fifty Two" I was thinking to use a SRGS grammar mentioned in the AAOs documentation for voice recognition like: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <grammar version="1.0" xml:lang="en-US" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/06/grammar" tag-format="semantics/1.0" root="Main"> <rule id="Main"> <one-of> <item>V1 <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/> V2 <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/> VR <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/> Flex <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/></item> <item>V1 <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/> V2 <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/> VR <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/> take off thrust <ruleref special="#GARBAGE"/></item> </one-of> </rule> </grammar> But how can I use the SRGS grammar for checkists? Something like would be great but does not seem to work: [TO Speeds and Thrust.xml](SPEAK:Takeoff speed and thrust) Any other ideas or hints how this could be accomplished? Thanks for your help, Holger

Hi, I really like the product but always having a hard time navigating within the provided documentation. As a suggestion, it would be great if the pages in the documentation are numbered the table of content is clickable to be easily navigate to the different topics. Would be great if this could be considered in one of the upcoming updates. Greetings, Holger
