Spitfire Rudder trim slow for Axis movement

Thanks for looking & for the explanation... appreciated. Phil -
Spitfire Rudder trim slow for Axis movement
psjshep replied to psjshep's topic in DCS: Spitfire L.F. Mk. IX
Yeah... I know button press controls tend to be slower than axis only controls.... I used Joystick Gremlin & vjoy to create a virtual joystick movement in X - this was then bound to the Axis control section, not the button selection... but it moved at the same speed. As a test, I used the throttle as a true axis movement - got the same result. Which is the gain in clickabledata.lua ? Thx for the feedback (as always)Phil -
Maybe I am missing some configuration, but no matter what I do to tweak the rudder trim it always moves very slowly. I have been using Authentikit's elevator & rudder controls, which use rotary encoders on a Leo Bodnar board to push 2 buttons (1 for each direction) I have been able to use Joystick Gremlim to map to a vjoy joystick axis for both elevator trim & rudder trim (virtual X & Y axis). The elevator trim can be tweaked in Joystick Gremlin such that the amount of X-axis (as I have bound it to) matches the rotation in-game - works VERY well. When I try with the rudder trim, it doesn't matter what values I use, the rudder trim ALWAYS moves at the same slow motion... the physical movement I make with the rotary will eventually synchronise with the in-game movement... but takes about 10 seconds to reach the final point... slowly! I have tried to alter the joystick .lua file & use values >1.0 for rudder trim, but it doesn't change the actual speed of the rotation - it almost seems like it isn't an analogue axis, but a button press.... Any idea anyone? Phil

Thanks for that quick mod... I have just tested it & it's almost there.... I had to switch the value_down values : {down = cptlights_commands.HookBypass, cockpit_device_id = devices.CPT_LIGTHS, value_down = 1.0, name = _('Hook Bypass Switch FIELD'), category = {_('Left Vertical Panel')}}, {down = cptlights_commands.HookBypass, cockpit_device_id = devices.CPT_LIGTHS, value_down = -1.0, name = _('Hook Bypass Switch CARRIER'), category = {_('Left Vertical Panel')}}, Nice 1 - thanks yet again for your help... :thumbup: Phil -

Rats! LOL... yep, my post was asking originally for Anti Skid for A10C! Many apologies.... well.. in that case.. can you do the same for the F/A18 as well please? Anti-skid lines for on and off.. And since I'm sticking my neck out all the way, could you also look at "Hook Bypass".. a separate line for Field and one for Carrier? (also for F/A 18C) Your ability to configure these things never ceases to amaze me!! Phil -

Yeah, I understand about resets/upgrades.... I always have a copy saved in order to copy the mods back in... Problem is, the wizzy code given by LeCuvier doesn't work anymore... Phil -

Something has changed in one of the updates for me.... this mod doesn't seem to be working anymore for the F/A 18.... Could you please take a look for me? Thanks, Phil -

Thank you.... set up now.... :thumbup: Originally, I didn't fully understand that the config item meant 2 button positions... Phil -

Thank you - perfect.. :thumbup: Maybe I'm missing something but the master arm switch for the AV8B is just a toggle... I would like to assign it to my master arm on/off switch.. with 2 distinct positions - "Master Arm - Safe" & "Master Arm - Arm" I hope that makes sense? Thanks again, Phil -

Hi LeCuvier, I have one more request please..... (1 request.... 2 buttons :) ) On the FA18, the launch bar is a toggle switch... Can you define 2 entries; 1 for extend & 1 for retract? On the AV8B, I have been trying to get the Master arm to act as 2 entries; Arm & Safe (I can sort of get it working but it wont reset to whatever the switch is set to at the start of a mission) Thanks again... Phil -
Thx for the pointer, Greyman.... code created & works perfectly... Here's the link in case anyone else has a need.. Phil
