We have a number of SIMVARs and LVARs (and X-Plane DataRef equivalents) we use, which you can use to interact with the SayIntentions.AI world.
MSFS: L:SIAI_RADIO_PTT

If ATC services are NOT enabled, the pilot cannot talk to ATC on the radio, but can still talk to non-ATC services, such as ground-crews, FBO, virtual airlines, etc. Note that Entourage customers will be forced to have this set to "1" at all times. Additionally, we recommend that this be set to "1" while pilots are connected to other ATC networks, such as VATSIM or IVAO.
