Hi, I'm running MF, an Arduino Mega and MSFS, and have written an extensive config. file for MSFS.

Am I able to test each config. line to see if it activates the correct function within MSFS, without actually having physical switches connected to the Arduino?

I thought I could do this by clicking 'Run' in MF, but nothing happens in MSFS (or sometimes the completely wrong thing happens - but I'm testing such a simple function such as Beacon, or Nav Lights) ... in which case how would I test both the ON and OFF (of the Beacon config.), by just clicking 'Run'?

Many thanks.

Let me put it another way ,,,

Is it possible once I've written a new button config. instruction, to test if it works correctly in MSFS without having to connect wires/pins on the breadboard/Arduino ... or is the only way to test to connect test wires on the breadboard/Arduino - for each and every switch config. test?

Is there a test function direct from MF without having to also wire a switch or temporary Arduino connector wires?

We have a feature request for this on Github https://github.com/MobiFlight/MobiFlight-Connector/issues/297

Unfortunately it is not yet implemented.

Have a great day!
