To further clarify your options. If you enable Afterburner Detent Always on in Special settings. You will then have to bind a key somewhere to allow you to go into afterburner. This will mean moving your throttle past the mil power setting without the proper key bind cycled or held (see below) the throttle will not move into afterburner. There are two options here: 1- Cycle Afterburner Detent -On/Off - This will mean each press of that key will toggle the finger lifts. Press once. You can now always go into afterburner. Press again, you can never go into afterburner. Press again, You can now always go into afterburner again. 2- Throttle Finger Lift (Both) Up/DOWN. - With this option. You can Enter afterburner only when you are Currently Holding down the key. If you release the key, it will stay in afterburner until you move the throttle back below the Mil Power Stops then it wont go back into afterburner again unless you again HOLD the button down. (This is my preferred option) (The above two options require the special setting to be always on. And inversely, the afterburner always on setting requires you to bind one or the other of those key binds. These would be the desired option if you don't have physical detents or don't want to use them. ) -The next option you can do with the Warthog is to open up the little panel between the top of the throttles and flip the afterburner detent. This will add a mechanical click to your throttles. In this situation you would likely opt to have the Afterburner detent special setting set to "always off". You then would need to adjust the throttle axis in your keybinds so that throttle position for the physical detent in your throttle matches the software throttle axis curve at full mil power. here is a good video on the software setting procedure.

i was about to say. it probably is an input binding problem. may have to reset to default keyboard bindings

Update 2.5.6.60645 removed the visual count of Chaff and Flares on the bottom left of SA page when in Bypass mode. Was this intentional?

Here is another trk file where the bit test had leading edge flap get stuck. Happens at the very end of the track. Landed. Shut Down. Restart. BIT test. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f2v0tkUu6RNEJRls--NTHmax5yvxRH-N/view?usp=sharing

DCS 2.5.6.60645 Similar issue. Locked a target with A/A Radar. Used TWS Auto Mode. Lost lock at some point in turn. No longer could use radar elevation in A/A Radar modes. Still had radar tilt function in surface modes. Unable to upload Track file as it is 57.9 MB. Track: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f2v0tkUu6RNEJRls--NTHmax5yvxRH-N/view?usp=sharing Bug encountered shortly after locking C-130 Unsure how well this will sync up but I used TacView to get a time for the bug. Mission time shows 2011-06-01 at about 11:31:00 to 11:35:00 for when the bug first appeared Additionally at the end of that track file, I tried the FCS BIT test to see if that bug was still around. But I'll make another post for that.

It would be awesome if the KC-135 MPRS could refuel people using the basket OR the boom. could help us not have so many tankers flying around in large multiplayer missions.

Please add an option to make AI tanker Aircraft have unlimited fuel. We have a mission where the kc-130's keep running out of gas. Also, Players can command them to fly to a different location which destroys their ability to be a tanker. Please Please Please! On a side note, it would be fabulous if we COULD command a tanker to fly somewhere then begin a refueling order!!!!!

+1. Cycle detent may be nice for some, But I much prefer Momentary Detent. Hold the button to go past it. Not holding it? It doesn't go past. Please ED, add this keybind for us!

I was just about to upload a video of how annoying it is. adding a very small deadzone to my tdc slew axis' fixed it. apparently it was creating enough of an input to trip the system up even though it wasn't enough to actually move the cursor.

i have three different buttons bound for tdc depress for testing. one is the stick i use to slew it pressed in. another is a different button on the stick and the 3rd is enter on the keyboard. with any of them, it will just flash an underline for less than a second after i release tdc depress. i can hold it for 1 second or 1 minute or anywhere in between and it will still just flash the underline. after about 5 minutes of spamming the button in every conceivable pattern the underline eventually stays for a few seconds then the page disappears and i can actually enter the grid.

I too had this issue. I've tried holding it for up to 10 seconds. pressing it multiple times. sometimes it would work, many times it wouldn't. In my last attempt I could only get it to stay underlined using enter on they keyboard, and it was still unreliable then. I could not get it to stay underlined at all using my hotas.

I have a logitech x-56. I use a knob for zoom in and out. Unfortunately the pot for the x56 is not perfect and has very small deviations when sitting in certain positions. Because the zoom level in DCS matches this perfectly it causes my zoom to bounce in and out rapidly. This could be fixed by adding a setting for something like "buffer" or "lag" which would only allow the output to change if the input has changed a certain percentage.

I'm starting a new thread for this since the old one was marked as correct as is with no explanation months ago and no response from ED. Many of us have a problem when we don't have the perfect HOTAS that causes the Air to ground radar slewing to become impossible or difficult. Disabling realistic TDC slew seems like the option that should help us with this problem. Here is the original thread for anyone who wants some light reading: https://forums.eagle.ru/forum/english/digital-combat-simulator/dcs-f-a-18c-hornet/controller-questions-and-bugs-aa/286127-correct-as-is-exp-trapezoid-not-slewing-realistic-tdc-unchecked For me, I do not use a joystick hat or axis for TDC that has a depress function. In order to slew the cursor on the air to ground radar. I have to take my hand off my throttle and hold my tdc depress button on my stick why i use the tdc slew on the stick. It would be nice if ED could add some functionality for different setups. Suggestion: with realistic TDC Slew off. On air to ground radar EXP modes. TDC depress once to activate cursor. slew as desired. TDC depress again to release. That would give many of us a much needed quality of life improvement for the EXP modes.

The controls do not appear to have the HMCS Power switch as a configurable control. Cant find it anywhere.

I think it is because in a multi location Mission. You don't have the freedom to engage targets with multiple jtacs without either you changing codes inflight or the jtac changing codes to match your stores. I would not be opposed to having a mission preset to allow or deny inflight code changing. I could see how allowing players to tell the JTAC what code to lase could be very useful for pilots or could be hell for multiplayer servers. In any case, standardizing it across modules would be a step in the right direction

Fire Bottle Discharge (FIRE EXTING DISCH) switch on glare shield should be reversed. Left click should move the switch left. Right click should move the switch right.

Can the A10C II get custom kneeboard shortcuts like the f18 and f16 have

I saw for the a-10C II a discussion about setting laser codes for weapons. It brought to mind the fact that the implementation is non standard across modules. They also pointed out that it is not possible to change the weapon codes inflight IRL. Here is a possible way to implement it that could be standard across all modules and intuitive for new users. It would also give a mechanism for preventing inflight reassignment of codes (or allow it if you want to appease fans) without making the modules' avionics unrealistic. The idea is simple. If you select a laser guided weapon during rearm, it would pop up a box beneath it to enter in the laser code. You may need to also implement some message that pops up as error or defaults back to 1688 if an invalid code is entered. If a player wanted to review their codes inflight they could just pull up the rearm screen again. If you wanted to be nice to players who like changing their codes inflight maybe put a button in there to update codes. (this button could also be the way to trigger the "Invalid Code" message if a code entered was outside of acceptable ranges.

Found another switch problem. The ground arm guarded switch and zeroise guarded switch do not turn off when the cover is closed. I am not sure about the A10 Specifically but in every plane i've flown, switch guards like that force the switch off when closed.

Mouse Click Switchology Changes I am happy to find that many of the A10C II switches are right clicked to turn up. Thank you. So far I have found a few that aren't. The Counter Measure Signal Processing Panel switches are left click to turn up or on. and right click to move to the momentary test. It may feel more ergonomic to be switched around. (MWS, JMR, RWR, DISP) the temp/press Norm RAM switch on the Environmental Panel

on steam now. two versions. normal at $80 and a10c upgrade for only $10

well, at the very least, i hope i've helped elevate the awareness of this to ED. Thanks guys!

ED, can you add keybinds for the ecm switch. I know it isn't implemented yet but key bindings for the sake of pretending to use it would be something. Thanks. Keep up the good work!

I can't speak to too many modules but I have the A10c, F-16 and F-18. The latter two use right click to move switches up and left click to move them down. Meanwhile the A10C uses left click for up and right for down. Can the c2 be consistent? Can anyone else speak to which direction other modules use. Is there a way in the controls to change this for a module? (Perhaps there should be ED)
