Start scripts for my PSX sim - maybe you will find them useful

After making a significant refresh of the scripts I use to start my PSX sim (router, PSX main server, PSX main clients, 15 or so other addons, etc.) I decided to make them available as in the psxhacks Git repo.

https://github.com/macroflight/psxhacks/tree/main/start_scripts

They're designed so that you should not have to edit the code from GitHub, making it easy to upgrade the scripts with a single click on "Pull" in GitHub Desktop.

Your own config goes into an "override" file  that is placed outsite the psxhacks directory (one level above).

Apart from starting and stopping single addons or the entire sim with a double-click on a PowerShell script, the scripts can also move, resize and minimize addon windows.

There's also a "flavor" feature that lets you easily adjust things you might want to change relatively often without editing your main config file (airline ICAO code for BACARS and the EFB config files and a few other things). Run the choose_flavor script, make your choices, then restart the sim or the affected addons - done.

If you just want ideas for your own sim, feel free to read the scripts, edit and use. If you want to use them as a package, feel free to reach out to me on Discord and I'll try to explain the best way to set things up - there's not much documentation available yet. If any changes are needed for your sim (e.g add start scripts for an addon I don't use), I'm willing to add that to the repo as well (within reason... :)).
