Information

Discord Presence

Connecting to the Simulator

--Install the following--
FSTools.zip: Install by running setup.exe. Follow through the installation wizard.
XP11.FSToolsConnector.lua: Place it in your FlyWithLua scripts folder. FlyWithLua is required.

Once these are installed, just run your simulator and the main program and you're ready to roll.

Connecting a Flight Plan

Discord Presence will not display flight information without your simulator and a loaded flight plan.

To connect a flight plan manually:

  1. Make sure any active flight plans are unloaded (when the Load FP button is visible).
  2. Empty all callsign input boxes.
  3. Fill in all input boxes in the rows above the Load FP/Unload FP and Reset Flight buttons.
  4. Click Load FP.

To connect a flight plan via VATSIM:

  1. File (or pre-file) a flight plan on the VATSIM network.
  2. Enter your callsign into the callsign input box.
  3. Press enter (or click Load FP).

Resetting the Flight Stage

When one clicks the Reset Flight button, the flight stage and statuses will reset. Active flight plans will remain active, and existing landing rates will remain.

Skipping the Active Flight Stage

Double click the green text displaying the active flight stage to skip to the next average flight stage. This feature is also implemented in the [Popout Window]. This shall be used only when your flight stage is stuck, as flight stages are automatic.
