LUA scripting X:Start Listen Command

[Nix Mills]

Hi all, does anyone have any examples that they can share where, in a lua script, you can start a listen command?

I.e. the Mission Editor command X:Start Listen Command that waits for a certain switch or button to activate a flag.

take a look at FlightAssistant 1.5 by jmossr. It uses radio button sequenced pushes to create an autopilot for the mosquito by using TrimTable. You might be able to create a flag interaction in a similar way with a certain combination triggering a flag. Just a guess.

if isDebugUnitEnabled then
    checkPerformClickableCommandArgs = function(deviceId, commandId, value, errorLevel)
        local lvl = errorLevel + 1
        checkArgType('performClickableCommand(device, command, value)', 'device', deviceId, 'number', true, lvl)

    end
    pperformClickableCommand = function(deviceId, command, value)
        checkPerformClickableCommandArgs(deviceId, command, value, 2)
        return performClickableCommand(deviceId, command, value)
