AxisAndOhs feature update 2.04 released

Hello @ll,

AAO 2.04 has been uploaded to the shops today. It should be deployed and available for download in the next few days.

This was a very long sprint, and the version required 43 builds to mature. The release of the Aerosoft CRJ didn’t really help either 

• Change: Virtual key presses now working with MSFS, can be assigned to buttons or axis
• Change: Buttons can be assigned to have a different action when held down for a bit (long press) or just clicked (short press)
• Change: Rotary encoder can be assigned to have a different action when turned fast or slow (fast turn)
• Change: Joystick axis can be used to trigger one-shot events or key presses
• Change: Saitek Panels can be set to MIDI mode. In that mode the controls on the panel will send MIDI events that can be assigned in AAO like any other button
• Change: “SLEEP:” command to pause the execution of an RPN script by a fixed or random amount of time
• Change: “SIMPROC:” command to pass the execution of an RPN script on to the simulator, instead of processing it in AAO
• Change: “EXEC:” command to call an executable on your computer from within an RPN script
• Change: “SOUND:” command to play a wave file on your computer from within an RPN script
• Change: Devices that send unwanted DirectInput signals can be configured to be ignored by AAO (device blacklist)
• Change: added handling of C: variables
• Change: The position value of an axis can be assigned to scripts (required to operate the thrust levers in the Aerosoft CRJ)
• Change: automated restart of the script handler if SimConnect breaks down (the little LED on the main page turns yellow/red)
• Change: main window can be stretched by spinning the mouse wheel between the Axis and Button panels
• Change: Improved handling of the RPN script editor (copy&paste from other sources, doubleclick formats the contents)
• Change: Filter textbox is immediately active on the variable and event tree selection dialogs, “Enter” applies the filter
• Change: Added an extra “AXIS_TILLER_SET” event for ground steering with aircraft that use “AXIS_RUDDER_SET” for rudder control (Aerosoft CRJ)

And of course numerous bugfixes and improvements under the hood.
