NVAN X-Plane Command Aliases Plugin

This is a simple plugin that makes aliases for commands that are "push and hold" so you can use them via the native X-Plane UDP API.

Installation

Download the latest version here.

Just extract and drop the plugin into X-Plane/Resources/plugins folder.

Then in the commands.txt file, write the commands you want aliases to be made for one per line. You can place comments with #.

# Sample commands.txt file

# A couple commands for Fire Panel of Toliss A321
AirbusFBW/FireTestENG1
AirbusFBW/FireTestENG2
AirbusFBW/FireTestAPU

# Another sample of native planes
sim/flight_controls/pitch_trim_up
sim/flight_controls/pitch_trim_down
sim/flight_controls/rudder_trim_left
sim/flight_controls/rudder_trim_right

Three aliases will be created for each command:

• A dataref COMMAND_press if set to 1 will begin the command / if set to 0 will stop it.
• A command COMMAND_begin that will begin the command.
• A command COMMAND_end that will stop it.

Examples for AirbusFBW/FireTestENG1:

• AirbusFBW/FireTestENG1_press
• AirbusFBW/FireTestENG1_begin
• AirbusFBW/FireTestENG1_end
