Hello, i'm not sure if it's here where i need to ask or request(?) this, but i'm sorry if it isn't.
I don't have a physical throttle, trackir or anything like that, just a basic joystick and i use my mouse for the camera movement with a lot of key combinations between those two. For a long time i've been searching for a way of using my mouse wheel as the throttle (because as you know, an axis is way more precise than pressing a button which basically renders vertical landing on any aircraft impossible) and bind a key on my joystick for a "quick zoom", but i never found a way of doing it. I know that "quick zoom" does not exist in DCS. IL-2: Great Battles, has those two options and they help me a lot for control and situational awareness without awkward key bindings.
I just want to know if anyone knows a not-that-frustrating way of doing it - at least the throttle thing since the quick zoom -i assume- needs to be added to the sim.
OR BETTER, if there would be a possibility to ask ED to add them to the key binding, but i don't know if they would do it or well.. i don't even know if it's possible to request them things like that.
I would really love to have that option like we do in IL-2 and i think it would help a lot for those who are starting and don't have better hardware like a HOTAS or TrackIR. After using IL-2: GB, it's really hard to go to DCS and have to deal with that "awkward" control setup that i need to use because of my hardware limitations and i won't be able to obtain the hardware necessary in a couple of years, so i don't have much of a choice with the sim restrictions and my own, and i love this sim, but yeah... that's the only thing making it worse for me.
So any suggestions would be appreciated, and if it's possible to ask ED to add them, i would really like to know how to request it.
Anyway, if someone reads this, thanks. Also, english is not my first language so yeah, i'm sorry if i made any mistakes.
