Clickable Mouse Cockpit Mode switch

[cz_jc]

Hello, looks like the usual Alt-C shortcut doesn't work in the Mig. I use it all the time. Is it renamed or how do you do it when you want to look around the cockpit using the mouse ?

[Dun_Aenghus]

Bump. Same problem for me. I use Alt-C all the time. Can't find the option in the Mig.

Just a wild guess, but you'll probably have to add this line to all the others...

 

{combos = {{key = 'C', reformers = {'LAlt'}}},                 down = iCommandCockpitClickModeOnOff, name = 'Clickable mouse cockpit mode On/Off', category = 'General'},

 

...to your Mods\aircrafts\A-10C\Input\*whateverthemig21folderisnamed*\keyboard\default.lua file.

 

Maybe it's even just commented out. Just do a search in that file for "iCommandCockpitClickModeOnOff", if there's a double dash (--) at the beginning of the line, remove them.

I just found this already in the file:

 

{combos={{key='C',reformers={'LAlt','LShift'}}},down=iCommandCockpitClickModeOnOff,name='Mouse cursor cockpit mode',category='General'},

So it seems alt-C -> alt-shift-C, and all is well?

Aaaand I confirm that it works :)

 

So in the mig default clickable cockpit key is Alt Shift C instead of Alt C.

Right, but it should be possible to remap it in the "General" section of the controls. It's named "Mouse cursor cockpit mode". That's just what the lua defines + the default mapping.

Yep exactly. Just did that. Youll find it when you go to the key remapping screen and press Alt Shift C. Its named differently than the default 'Clickable Mouse Cockpit Mode'. That's why I didnt initially find it and thought its missing.

Guys,

 

21 has lot of custom commands (overall around 420 IIRC).

 

 

Use LAlt + LShift + C to use the mouse for cockpit view.

 

 

You can remap any of command the usual way, if you wish.

[Roger Ramjet]

You can also double click mouse button 3 (usually a scroll wheel) to toggle mouse view/cursor .

I was just stumbling over this myself...

Yes, we can remap them. But changing the default main keyboard shortcuts in the sim that controls view and view modes is very bad practise. What comes next? Changing the ESCAPE key for some Mig specific purposes?

 

Please don't do this in your next module.
