Key-bind Mapping for Countermeasures ON/OFF?


Bearfoot

Recommended Posts

It should be called "Start dispensing" in the pilot collective category, unless I'm misremembering you need to open the cover on the collective for it to work though.

 

That's for the actual release. But before releasing, the counter-measures system needs to be switched on. It's a switch on a box just in front of the collective (where you can also set whether or not to dispense single/pairs, etc.). I am wondering if there is a keybind to switch the system on.

Good news and bad news, finding the data needed to make the binds was easy.

The bad news is it wont persist through a patch or game repair unless you turn it into a mod.

 

Simply paste

 

{down = device_commands.Button_3, cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = -1, name = _('Flare dispenser off'), category = _('Flare dispenser panel')},
{down = device_commands.Button_3, cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 0, name = _('Flare dispenser fast'), category = _('Flare dispenser panel')},
{down = device_commands.Button_3, cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 1, name = _('Flare dispenser slow'), category = _('Flare dispenser panel')},
{down = device_commands.Button_3, up = device_commands.Button_3, cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 1,value_up = 0, name = _('Flare dispenser slow/fast 3 position switch'), category = _('Flare dispenser panel')},
{down = device_commands.Button_3, up = device_commands.Button_3, cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = -1,value_up = 0, name = _('Flare dispenser off/fast 3 position switch'), category = _('Flare dispenser panel')},

 

into DCS World\Mods\aircraft\SA342\Input\joystick\default

and DCS World\Mods\aircraft\SA342\Input\keyboard\default if you intend to bind it to a keyboard.

 

Or install this via JSGME or some other mod manager. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_IWZNGv-FelRVNpQzlZZzVkMFk

This is great!! Thanks. Hopefully something like this will emerge in the stock code, but until then ...
