Le script d’exportation de DCS est simple. Son travail consiste à envoyer des trames IP de type UDP vers l’hôte local, c’est à dire le PC du simulateur lui-même, sur le port UDP 10400, ici choisi.

Le code LUA ci-dessous, non commenté, permet l’envoi des informations du panneau du train d’atterrissage. L’élément exportable DCS A-10C 653 est donc considéré. On peut retrouver ces identifiants depuis cette liste.

Les trames envoyées sont formatées pour être écoutées, lues par le programme GetExportDCSA10C_win32.exe.

export.lua

package.path = package.path..”;.\\LuaSocket\\?.lua”
package.cpath = package.cpath..”;.\\LuaSocket\\?.dll”

socket = require(“socket”)

log.info ( “TW(c) A10C export v0.4” );

sTW_A10CMainFunc=
{
TW_LOtime = 0;
TW_udp = socket.udp();
Tacno_NextTime =0;
Tacno_UpdatePeriod = 0.25;

StartFunc=function(self)
self.tacno_cockipt_socket = socket.udp();
self.tacno_cockipt_socket:setpeername( “127.0.0.1” , 10400);

self.TW_udp:settimeout(.001)

— RECEIVE DATA FROM EXTERNAL on UDP 10401
— FORMAT GADROC’S HELIOS : C43,3007,1 where 43 is this device, 3007 -> 7 is the command and 1 the value
— read clickabledata.lua and devices.lua
— /!\ DO NOT ADD THIS FUNCTION IS YOU USE GADROC’s HELIOS (in UDP will be 9089)
