Send Lua script through socket

[Avat]

Hello,

 

I have connected to DCS using LuaSocket. I can receive information, but I'd like to send something.

 

So, let's say I want to send UDP message with a command:

trigger.action.outText("TEST MESSAGE", 10, 0)

 

Simple command like udp:receive() causes DCS to crash.

 

How to approach this?

OK, I managed to send data to DCS and it's being received properly.

 

But still, the only thing I can send using sockets is string "trigger.action.outText("TEST MESSAGE", 10, 0)" - is there any possibility to make it work in mission?

I'm starting now tring to do the same thing, but I didn't even connect the socket... could you explain how did you connect DCS via luasocket?

Look for DCS Witchcraft on Github - it's got it sorted very well

Thanks but I found another (ugly) solution :)
