Version: SDK 0.23.1
Frequency: Consistently*
Severity: Low
Context: Trying to open ATC programmaticaly via SimConnect. This event ID is listed in the SDK documentation here
Bug description: Unable to map sim event ATC_MENU_OPEN
Repro steps: Use of line code below:
SimConnect_MapClientEventToSimEvent(hSimConnect, 4, "ATC_MENU_OPEN");
Attachments:
Indeed, ATC
, ATC_MENU_OPEN
and ATC_MENU_CLOSE
events have never worked in FS2020, yet are not marked deprecated. I’ve tried with SimConnect, Gauge API (send|trigger)_key_event[_ex1]()
and RPN with execute_calculator_code()
.
Nor is there any alternative event (or variable or whatever) to toggle the ATC window that I know of. IIRC the ATC_MENU_n
events do work if the window is already open, FWIW.

I trully agree. I always had a problem trying to assigning it with simconnect. It never worked.
