Runibl Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Really would love to have the possibility to set "up states", for controls and switches, as a built in GUI feature. This is something I have longed for a long time, and I believe, has been requested before. Runi.

kingpinda Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 I don't mind fiddling a bit with the lua but what i really want is upstates/value_up for Flaming Cliffs... All modules I can now use the 2 and 3 way switches on my warthog throttle but flamings cliffs planes and the SU-25T because of lack of clickable cockpit.lua I still have to use the bleeding keyboard for most options...
feefifofum Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Hey Kingpinda, you can get to the controls for the Flaming Cliffs planes in the base_joystick_binding.lua in dcs/config/input/aircrafts. I've attached my own modified version, which features several additional control bindings under "systems" with the prefix "feefi" so they are all easily located. Among them are working three way flaps for the Su-25T and , a working airbrake for the F-15 (can partially open/close by returning the switch to neutral position) and working two-way toggles for nav lights, ECM, electric power, and cockpit illumination. It should also be noted that this won't bork your existing bindings/curves as it adds commands to the base DCS configuration file, not the .diff.lua files that contain your individual bindings. Verified working in 1.5, hope this helps!base_joystick_binding.lua 2 THE GEORGIAN WAR - OFFICIAL F-15C DLC

Verified working in 1.5, hope this helps! At first I thought meh... Icommands... they don't sync properly when you make a two way toggle go on when pressed and off when released. But then I saw your logic by toggling the flaps when switch is set to neutral! so it can be used with a threeway switch! extend flaps: down=flaps on, up=flaps toggle. retract flaps: down=flaps off, up=flaps toggle. hadn't thought of that! thanks! The electric system and illumination trick I used to implore with the ka-50 also untill I figured out how to use down=3004, value_down=1.0 and somesuch. The icommand on and off doesnt sync nicely but for power systems this doesnt matter. You don't need to know in what position the switch is ofcours. if the ecm is off and you need it on you just flick to the opposite position. Does the f15 trick for the airbrake work for the su25-t as well? I tried to get it to work but it only wants to extend fully or close fully. Thanks for this lua though. going to fly the heck out of the Su-25T now :) haven't flown these planes much because half of my throttle was unusable.
feefifofum Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Afraid not, the F-15C is the only plane I've tried that the airbrake will partially open/close on. I can't remember whether I've tried in the A-10A; usually when I'm hoggin' I'm flying the Charlie. EDIT: Oh hey, I think I remember you from the other Warthog toggles thread! :lol: Edited October 3, 2015 by feefifofum THE GEORGIAN WAR - OFFICIAL F-15C DLC
kingpinda Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Could be could be :) I only started modifying lua's when I got my warthog a couple of months back and wanted to be able to use the thing with all the other modules as well :)
ezfox Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) fifth - i cant believe that this didnt make it into the 1.5 beta :( Edited October 6, 2015 by ezfox [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Vivoune Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) It'd be nice to have a 'momentary' or 'toggle' option for the various controls where applicable, much like the "Add Modifier" option we have now. So that the sim detects a control state and not just a control change. Edited October 8, 2015 by Vivoune [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Wizard1393 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 +1 for proper 3-way / 2-way toggles to be able to configure flaps and such like in the A-10C...

seikdel Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 +1 We've been lua-hacking our way around this for years. It'd be a really nice feature to have integrated into the GUI.

Modifying the lua files is a usable workaround, but it a proper UI integration would be very much appreciated.
Baldawg Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 I concur.....even though the M2000 is still in Beta and we are Lua hacking that as we speak......its not playing nice at all. this should be a no brainer for every sim.

elChotacabras Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 +1 2018 and still need an update of Export.lua with minimal performances like electrics power on and off separated LoSetCommand and options like that for our cockpits.
