Status information for followme
« on: December 16, 2019, 05:54:49 pm »
I'm developing a GSX remote control (Wifi, based on Arduino and a touch display) for my personal use. Dealing with the GSX SDK and catching the GSX messages works good so far. What I'm missing is a status information for the following car as it is available for other services. Would it be possible to get it included in one of the next updates?

@virtuali: Lvars as available for the other services, would be very helpful.

1 = service can be called
2 = service is not available
3 = services has been bypassed
4 = service has been requested
5 = service is being performed
6 = service has been completed

@Torsten: I will think about it. The problem is, that it is not a plug&play solution. A certain LCD touch display is required, Arduino Mega, ESP8266-01 for WiFi, grv vibration motor, some wiring and a .net application. This means a lot of work to do for documentation and support. One more point is, that the software depend very much on the GSX menues / messages. Any change on that and my software will need an update. I could not guarantee that in a timely manner or even if.

No, it's not an Android app.

Oh sorry, i missread Arduino and Android :-) ... sorry

But such an App for >Android is a very good idea. Especialy for cockpit builders who dont want to
interact with mouse and screen...

That is my motivation to develop the remote control, because I do not like to deal with the keyboard when I'm in the cockpit.
