I have written a Lua script for cabin crew announcements. It plays them throughout normal flight (no jump in the middle flights supported) and currently supports the following: "Welcome on board" "Safety instructions" "Seat belts on" and "seat belts off" "Drinks and meals" "Start of descend" "Before landing" "Arrival (after landing)" It also announces some commands on behalf of first officer. It will operate if you follow all general flight procedures, later I will describe trigger logic in detail. It also supports turnarounds. I have not tested it beyond normal flight flow (like failures and similar). Script is controlled through two first officer's audio control panel receiver switches: FLT INT and PA. Normally the are turned on and do not require any adjustments. FLT INT is responsible for first officer commands while PA is responsible for cabin crew announcements. You can turn them to adjust the volume or depress them to turn them off. Thus you can turn off first officer if you prefer to perform cabin calls by yourself and you can turn off cabin crew (but what's the sense then). To use the script you have to install FlyWithLua and unpack archive contents into 'scripts' folder (so that the script resides in the root of this folder). IXEG_Cabin_Crew.zip

For all you nosegear-door lovers out there: And for all the night-owls: Cheers, Jan

If you have a gizmo softcrash, you must reboot the scripts or reload the aircraft. If you can consistently softcrash gizmo in 1.1 we would love to see how you do it so we can fix that problem! Cheers, Jan

This would be perfect. I flew an entire flight with your script and it just worked beautifully. Thanks

Fabulous. Just purchasing! Cheers Peter

@Nkmsw8 Regarding "doors manual" I suggest - engines turned off, parking brake set. Is it ok?

Trying your script now. So far so good. However may I suggest a slight change in when the "doors automatic" announcement is played. Can it be played when the anti collision light is turned on. This usually signifies that the aircraft is ready to be pushed back. Right now it's played when the pressurization is set to flight which is usually done after engine start and engine bleed is on. Seems a little too late to arm the doors at that points. See what you think. Thanks.

It is hard to understand pilot's intentions especially with limited capabilities of scripting. That's why I want to clarify the trigger logic of announcements. Most of the announcements are played with random delays for better realism. Script also prevents playing several announcements layered. Most of inflight announcements require properly setup pressurization: flight level and destination airport elevation. "Welcome on board" is played when cargo doors are closed (no cabin doors in IXEG 737 yet) and seat belt sign is turned on. "Doors on automatic" is played when anti collision light is turned on. "Safety instructions" are played as soon as you start pushing or starting engines or taxing. "Prepare to takeoff" is played when you turn on landing lights. "Seat belts on" and "seat belts off" are played inflight when you turn them on and off (that simple). "Drinks and meals" is played just before you reach cruise altitude. "Start of descend" is played when you are 1000 ft below your cruise altitude. "Before landing" is played when you pass 4000 ft altitude for destination airport or extract gear or set flaps 10 or more. "Landing command" is played when you pass 3000 ft altitude for destination airport or set flaps 30 or more. "Arrival (after landing)" is played when ground speed is bellow 40 kts. "Doors on manual" is played when engines turned off, parking brake set. Any advice or suggestions are welcome.

Just some WIP test

W.I.P.

With large profits and user numbers comes large tolerance to piracy theft rates. Flight sims are a niche market. Our entire user base on steam is a joke compared to most titles. Check out the steam charts stats for yourself. It's a fragile market. Without DRM most of the stand out products you enjoy today simply wouldn't exist. We would've moved on to other ways to pay the bills.

Because we aren't multi billion dollar companies with massive margins and user bases?
