    Programming Question Lua how to send a command key to a vessel

    By the way: The API Documentation can be found here: Html/Main/Script/mtd_vessel.htm [link] On github "viewing" it is a bit difficult, so I downloaded the complete Script folder locally to "browse it" ;)

    Programming Question Lua how to send a command key to a vessel

    Looking at some source-code for hints (Script/Atlantis/launch.lua in this case) I found this: You could try something like this (not testet, just written "blind"): vif = vessel.get_focusinterface() if vif:get_classname() ~= 'Ariane6' then -- Class-Name is a guess from me ;) term.out('****...

    Programming Question Lua how to send a command key to a vessel

    Does the oapi.simulatebufferedkey work at all? I mean, could you test some key commands that are not meant fo a vessel, but for Orbiter itself - like "time-acceleration" for example ("T" or "Z")? ...just to see if that works at all. Another try might be to use the "unbuffered" version...

    [Question] Image processing resources for paper data storage

    I see your idea, but it might not be that easy. In a quite similar project we just "faked it" by sticking thin RF-ID Tag stickers onto the punchcards. The reader then just needed to read the ID and from a lookup "database" spit out the stored data[1]; and there we had it. With an arduino, an...

    clbk_consumebufferedkey functions merging

    Remember Highlander? "There can be only one" ;) If you define 2 functions with the same name (and parameter signature) how would the computer know what function to call when you call it? Even in Object-Oriented languages that allow "function overloading" (multiple functions with the same name) -...

    Orbiter 2024 Release

    D3D9Client for Orbiter 2016 has the "lens flare" effect as an option unter "Post-Processing" if I remember correct. It is not enabled as default. D3D9Client for Orbiter 2024 might have the same setting and default - I would check in the "advanced" pages and look for "Post-Processing".

    Question Custom Planet Elevation Maps for Orbiter 2016?

    From the help I would say: with -e it unpacks .tree file into individual files without (-e) it packs individual files into a .tree file. I would just test it with something like this: texpack C:\folder\with\individual\levels\and\files Surf_Elev -L2 if it fails, my assumption was wrong ... If it...

    Question Custom Planet Elevation Maps for Orbiter 2016?

    The angle brackets denote that those are mandatory parameters and should not be entered literally. The square brackets on the other hand denote optional settings, but are also not to be entered literally. The usage line gives the best overview: texpack <Planet-tree-root> <Layer> [<Flags>>]...

    Software Orbiter 2016 Crashing on Windows 11

    8 GB of RAM should be enough to handle Orbiter 2016. The speed is almost only limited by the GPU / Graphics-System. Are you sure you are not using "Software rendering"? And (to rephrase @gattispilot) : "[...]please post the orbiter.log file. It [usually helps] in troubleshooting[...]"

    Interesting project to let AI decode a FSM encoded tape-file audio. Maybe you could "nudge" the AI into the right direction by mentioning some of the properties of the audio format. It usually is more about the timing (zero-crossings per time to get either of the two frequencies representing one...

    Orbiter 2024 Release

    As Urwumpe already mentioned, i18n was never a "high priority" goal during development. Not that I am against it, but you have to consider that if you translate the Application (to let's say italian), there's only a limited enhancement as long as the Manual and almost all tutorials etc. are...
