I noticed the other day that when notifications are suppressed, the player isn't presented with a list of pushback options once the tug is ready for pushback. Would be nice to see that menu automatically pop up when all other notifications are suppressed

I am following this, but can you clarify what you mean by supressing notifications. You mean, you have set L:FSDT_GSX_DISABLE_DOORS_MSG=1 , have enabled remote control L:FSDT_GSX_SET_REMOTECONTROL=1 and have the HTML toolbar inactive, or just simply disabled message verbosity via the Options menu

I use the Flow42 toolbar, so I scroll down on the GSX app icon to keep notifications from popping up. That works great, except that when it comes time for pushback, you'll hear the "beep" sound but nothing else.

yeap, ok thats what I thought. Well when you "scroll down" the GSX Toolbar becomes inactive. When the GSX toolbar is inactive, GSX is unable to tell the Tool bar to pop up. This is how MSFS is currently designed to work - ie. Toolbar menus can't be invoked by simconnect or external code

In my journey to automate the whole GSX interaction, I basically release remote control and allow the user to open the menu after "departure" has been requested. I prefer to have the Toolbar inactive to begin with so that it does not pop up when the user loads into their flight

#

after pushback is requested, the user can open the toolbar manually, and click "Continue Pushback, followed by their prefered direction" - once this is done, I make the toolbar inactive
