Finding events and lvars

Hello.

I'm trying to use the goflight mcp for the A32NX fcu. I'm using detective to find the events/lvars that are used, but some of them are not shown by detective. Is there a way to write them directly or load them in some way? There is a list here, https://docs.flybywiresim.com/pilots-corner/a32nx-briefing/a32nx_api/, that if it were available by default would be a great help.
Thank you.
Regards.
HB

    Please provide several examples from those listed that are not showing in Detective.

    Also, make sure you are using the latest version as Variables and Events get added all the time as they show up in the SDK.

    Best wishes

    Hello Steve,

    I did a full flight with Detective running in the background and please see attached the events regarding the FCU that did not show up. How can I use them to program the buttons?
    Thank you. Regards.

    Hello Steve,
    I've checked and I'm running the latest software version. To discard any eventual problem on the first Detective running I've done it again and still, it did not find the fcu events. Could you help?

    They look like HTML Events which are unique to FS2020. You need to use the SendClient Task in a Bespoke Event to get those to work.

    Detective does not detect HTML Events, until I find a way of doing it.

    Henrique and Steve,
    I was able to use the SendClient command in a bespoke event to trigger a FBW A320NX custom event, including from list that Henrique attached above.

    These were created in separate bespoke events and now work:

    SendClient K:A32NX.FCU_ALT_INC
    SendClient K:A32NX.FCU_ALT_DEC
    SendClient K:A32NX.FCU_ALT_PUSH

    I'm still experimenting with other custom events.....

    Hello, I've tried to create bespoke events by using SendClient for the FCU functions, but it doesn't work, set a bespoke event name and than typed e.g. K:A32NX.FCU_ALT_PUSH but if I assign it to the FCU ALT encoder / push function nothing happens. Can someone give an advise how to handle the SendClient method within the detective? All components are working fine, I already have assigned the range and mode selectors as well as the option and VOR/ADF switches and LS button to the EFIS Panel, but with the FCU SendClient method I'm a litte bit lost in space... it's for MSFS, FBW Airbus, all 3 statuslights are green. Best regards and thank you for help in advance. Ralf

    I have effectively used K: for SendClient bespoke events.

    Example attached is a bespoke for the FBW A320NX to simulate "push" and "pull" the SPD knob on the MCPPro. Its actually a toggle using the BUTTON SPD PUSH.

    Thank to both Steve's, I've created an event with K:.. and set it to the MCP Button_IAS_Push and it is working, if the SPD/MACH dot is visible then a push toggles to the SPD/MACH value and vice versa. Now it's a little bit more light at the horizon, I will try to set further FCU events to the GF MCPPro. Best regards Ralf
