Not able to make custom LVars work. #60

Closed uujfwmnp closed 2 years ago

uujfwmnp commented 2 years ago

I forked MCA with plans to get the Just Flight Piper Warrior to work natively. I've managed to get it 80% going by taking advantage of the native LVars, but it seems that anything that needs a user defined LVar, for example MobiFlight.JF_WARRIOR_KX175_COMM2_OUTER_KNOB_PLUS doesn't work. I noticed in the release version of MCA there's a file/folder structure "mobiflight-event-module/modules/StandaloneModule.wasm" that is missing. Would this be something I might need to copy into my local build?

Thanks!

That's correct. LVars can't be accessed via standard SimConnect but need the MobiFlight WASM module that I've included in the release ZIP file. In this repo you'll only find the custom LVar commands which need to be created for the 3rd party planes. This file is located here: https://github.com/mracko/MSFS-Mobile-Companion-App/blob/master/MobiFlight%20Custom%20Events/events.user.txt

I haven't looked into the Warrior yet, but I assume that it will need similar commands as the Arrow.

Excellent, I'll copy the mobiflight folder over and keep plugging away. I'll push and PR the branch to you once I get the Warrior all squared away.

Thanks! Perfect! Let me know if you need any assistance.
