x: cockpit preform clickable action

I need help finding the "x: cockpit preform clickable action" cockpit device #, command # and value # for the deploy flares button. More specifically the "UV-26 Start dispensing button" Much like having the doors open when I land, I would like to make a trigger the deploys my flares.

Bump. I'm looking for the Fuel switch so I can practice autorotaions with genuine surprise.

go to cockpit folder and then find clickable.lua

In clickable.lua, How do we find the command, eg 3002,3118, etc?

use modelviewer to get the switch/button arg name, then you can search the name in clickable.lua to get the arg#

Thanks for your help guy's

Looking into it, you can also find those commands keyboard.lua for each aircraft in your saved games

For the UH-1H's main fuel switch, I get this line:

elements["FUEL-PTR"] = default_2_position_tumb(_("Main Fuel") , devices.FUELSYS_INTERFACE, device_commands.Button_1, 81)

 

So I know it's #81, and 0 is off, but I still need the command number. the Perform clickable has 3 fields, and this doesn't give me that information.

UH-1H "Main Fuel" switch

 

Cockpit device: 2

 

Once the switch is located in clickabledata.lua, look for what interface it is assigned to (devices.FUELSYS_INTERFACE). Find this value in devices.lua.

 

Command: 3001

 

Look for the command button that it is assigned to (device_commands.Button_1). Find this value in command_defs.lua.

 

Value: 1 (on) / 0 (off)

[Wrench]

In command_defs.lua, I still dont see the 3001 string.

Nor"fuelsys_interface" nor even the word fuel anywhere.

[Chump]

There is no actual value of 3001. In command_defs.lua, look for the device_commands table (towards the end of the file). You will see "start_command = 3000", then values set inside the table like "Button_1 = start_command + 1;" Button_1 is now equal to 3001.

 

devices.FUELSYS_INTERFACE is found in device_init.lua.

Got it! Thanks for being patient with my idiotness.
