Being quite new on cockpit building there might be some concepts here that I missunderstand, so bear with me, please.

When creating an input config I understand that it is possible to select action type. I understand that "Event ID" makes me choose from the SIMCONNECT events, and I believe that MSFS2020 enables events from the beta WASM. But Im also using SPAD.neXt, and there are events called MSFS, like MSFS:GLARESHIELD_LIGHTS_ON. Are those provided by the sim and available in MobiFlight too, or are those some kind of SPAD.neXt specifics?

Hi

MF ( in it´s LIVE Version) support 2 kinds if Direct Inputs..... FSUIPC Offset Writes and EventID ( Also through FSUIPC)
Offset Writes are pretty simple.... We change the Value of a Offset ( aslong its writeable) and FSUIPC do the work.
EventID is fire a Event.... But through FSUIPC so its limmited to the Events that are supported by FSUIPC.

And here come the trouble..... FSUIPC work fine for FSX/P3D but not already include the new FS2020 Events.

BUT
Sebastian also see this and include a NEW TOOL in Mobiflight to directly fire Events via Simconnect ( Pretty sure same way like Spad.Next)
THIS Tool is in testing progress.... You can use it by download the BETA Version of Mobiflight ( 7.10.14 as i know)

NOTE: This Version is BETA..... Means not stable and not fully working. Inputs are fine but maybe other things like Output are not working yet.
Test if you like but please wait for a official release to have a full stable system..... also for Outputs !
Good Luck !
