(6MT) Cruise control to launch control?

This probably has been brought up before, but I think cruise control function can be coded to be used as launch control. Has anyone tried this?

How would you use launch control with a manual transmission?

Lolololol no. You don't understand how this system works, there is absolutely no way - at all - to do what you are asking.

Is this video what you are talking about? BPM has coded a 6MT "launch control" of sorts but it really just alters the rev limit when in neutral.

Is this not a feature of most tunes? Pretty sure this is how launch control works in many manual cars.
