Does anyone know the Argument number for the Huey Start Engine Switch? It is bound to the HOME Keyboard button I can get the Perform Clickable Action Number for it that way but I can NOT find the Argument Number. in the Clickable.Lue file. I want the Argument number to monitor when the player pushes it to start the Huey to set up a trigger action. The Button range info would be nice too.

There is no entry on the clickable.lua because the Engine Start button is not clickable, as it cant be seen since it is in the downward face of the Collective. You can only actuate it by means of a keyboard binding.

However, you can detect the use of this key, using the X:START LISTEN COMMAND trigger action, like this:

If the user presses the Home key (Device 3, Command 3018) once, the flag is set to true, the next trigger checks this flags and performs an action (on my example it displays a message).

Keep in mind that this only detects a press of the key, it can't check if the user does in fact keep it pressed until the engine starts.

ACTIONS  "Set command"  Comand 3018  Value 1  will trigger the startup procedure for the engine into ground idle 

 

Actually, the OP doesn't want to start the engine via a trigger ... he wants  "to monitor when the player pushes it to start the Huey"  🙂
