Cycle selected store?

Is there a way to cycle what weapon store is active? I guess what I'm looking for is an easy way to switch from the Super 530s, to Magics, and back to Super 530s again without taking my hands off of the HOTAS.

I suppose I could map the "Store 1" and "Store 2" select buttons, but I'm trying to find a way to consolidate since spare HOTAS buttons are hard to come by :joystick:

Thanks

You could map the key combination on your hotas

I would generally love to see additional button commands for turning multiposition switches clockwise and counterclockwise! For example the radar power selector and the PCN parameter selector just to name two.

I don't have enough bottons on my Hotas to map each of the functions individually. This is actually nicely done in the F-86 where all these switches have a CW and CCW mode as well.

Wonder if Razbam plans to include this function in the future?

Well Magic and Guns have a single button to cycle between them, so you only need a second button for PCA2 (usually 530D)

its also alot more logical as in a dogfight you dont want to have to cycle 3 options , its a waste of precious time.

Not anymore there isn't. There is a single button for magic select and another for aa guns select. I really miss this feature.

I would also like to easily switch between the missiles.

Guys, it's like the real aircraft.

You select 530 mode.

Then you use the throttle 3-way selector:

- priority A/A guns

- neutral = return to PCA selection (in this case: 530)

- priority MAGIC

Perfect on a Warthog (if you fly with this HOTAS) with the switch just under the airbrake switch (forgot its name).

Boat switch :)

I really need to learn how to script these neutral position commands in TARGET...

Thanks, wasn't sure.

I used TARGET to do that. And no script, GUI was enough.

If you have an Warthog or a 3-way switch on your joystick....witch i don't.

That's why some of us are asking for a single joystick/button assignment ;).

Would you mind letting me know how to do that?

But these commands are not requiring a 3-way switch. They are not in 3-way switch abstraction category but in the HOTAS category. You can assign these commands to 3 regular push buttons.

I think their issue is that they don't have enough buttons on their controllers to be able to assign it to three different push buttons. So an option that cycled through the override modes and PCA selection would allow them to use a single button, even if it's not quite as convenient/ergonomic.

Ah Ok, which single command selects the Magic 530 then?

I have a feeling you already know the answer to this.

Sorry, I tried to help, but I misunderstood that the original request was for an FC3-type command, used in SSM.

Not at all :)

There are currently 3 available control inputs:

- MAGIC select

- AA GUNS select

- PCA select => i.e. neutral position

Simply map each of them on the Warthog's boat switch, with "PCA select" as the center one.

NB: I'm not sure of the exact wording, going from memory here.

I could point that there is no such thing as a "Magic 530" :D

But more interesting would be to write that there is no "single click 530 select" button in the real aircraft; so it sounds OK to me not to have one in the sim. :)

As I wrote earlier, select 530 through PCA (there are inputs for this if you want to map them, would be the 2nd one of the bottom line). Then use the inputs simulating the throttle switch (described just above), knowing that the "neutral" one means "back to previously selected mode on the PCA" => if this doesn't work (I need to check thorously), then it's a DCS M-2000C bug.

I can see "PCA BUTTON 1-5 SELECT" in controls, but that's for the top row on PCA.

What control map input selects the >2nd one of the bottom line?

All the other map inputs as you described are working fine, I can switch between Magics & 530 on my joystick now....but I still have to 1:st manually press the 530 button....& that's what I want to avoid.

Thanx :)

Stores 2 SELECT :thumbup:

Stores 2 SELECT :thumbup:

Thanx, it's working great now ;)

PCA BUTTON 1-5 SELECT- for top row &

Stores 1-5 SELECT- for bottom row...Perfect :pilotfly:

I just checked to make sure ( you had me worried that the last update changed it)

but i have "Stores 1 Select " on my stick , it will cycle Magic and Guns which is perfect

i also have "Stores 2 Select" for 530D/Bombs , whichever.

Not at all :)

Does this need the HOTAS to be "combined" using TARGET? IIRC there's no input from the Boat Switch centre position when used without TARGET.

Thanks!

I'll give this a try when I get home! Thanks!

It would be nice if they could make a 3 position switch abstraction with:

- Magic select else PCA select

- AA gun select else PCA select
