Runway Lights & XP 11

Post by machvista »

Hey guys,

Love the service, just signed up after my trial! Question - how do we turn on runway lights in XP 11 if PE disconnects after five clicks?

Thanks in advance!

They should be on automatically. Clicking the mic 5 times doesn't affect rwy lights in the sim normally (PTT lighting systems haven't been modeled afaik).

Moved this from the General forum to the X-Plane forum. If you have a post which is simulator-specific, please use the appropriate forum to reduce noise for others who don't use that sim.

Thanks! I guess I need to fix the runway lights, then. Now hurry up and bring on an East Coast expansion (NY & NJ). :)

Here is a plugin for PCL.
It makes you do it 7 times though. I wonder if there is a way to modify the plugin code to have it recognize it after 4 presses rather than 7.

I imagine you could if you changed these lines in the LUA script :

if PCL_COUNT < 4 then
PCL_COUNT = PCL_COUNT + 1

To

if PCL_COUNT < 3 then
PCL_COUNT = PCL_COUNT + 1
