Many thanks

Can you add 3 way for air break like A10C?

Much appreciated!!:thumbup:

Can you add 3 way for air break like A10C?

 

i can give you :

Airbreak ON if you hold the botton, airbreak OFF if you release the button

also added AntiSkid/nws

 

{down = iCommandPlaneAirBrakeOn,up = iCommandPlaneAirBrakeOff	,			name = _('Airbrake ON else OFF'),			category = _('shortcuts')},
{down = fcs_commands.Switch_ANTISKID, up = fcs_commands.Switch_ANTISKID,cockpit_device_id=devices.FLIGHTCONTROLS,value_down=0.0,value_up=0.5,name='Anti-Skid',category='shortcuts'},

Is there a installation guide for this? Never done it before but keen to as I have a TM Warthog also.

[comie1]

since they are missing atm i started to add some 2 and 3 way switches to the input.lua.

 

Nero you legend you :thumbup:

Thanks!

Zeus,

 

Manual release knob in A.C.P. - four position N/T N and T fusing etc.

 

or if any of you super coders could please whip that one up it would be amazing...

 

loving the harrier!

 

Thanks

Great work. Is there any way to cycle through the master modes?

[Von Thrud]

Awesome thanks Vladinsky!

[TorsteinE]

Having a switch for VSTOL/NAV and AG/NAV would be nice.

When you are finished getting all the abstractions you need, I will include them in the default.lua

 

That's awesome Zeus, a prompt reply with an earnest desire to help the community! Love it!

 

My one thought, and not to take away from the simpit builders who want all the rotary switches et al, is that incorporating everything possible under the sun into one lua will make a larger, and possibly daunting keybind file, for the newbies. I use some 3 pos. abstractions myself, so I'm sympathetic, but...

 

I think if ED could do anything for us, or maybe it's something the module developers did in terms of packing their kit, would be to not overwrite existing input .luas with every patch. Most people will customize their keybinds because it is entirely dependent on their peripherals and preferences, and if clear guides are available about how to build a custom keybind, it's not a big deal, and then would just be happiest not having to revisist them weekly. This can be accomplished by having every abstraction represented in the default lua, or.....just not over-writing them, or having them exist in the user's saved games folder instead of maintaining them in the game version folder so the customizations stick. I'm sure there is a good solution out there :)

 

Still, in lieu of another solution, a comprehensive default .lua will be an improvement for the Harrier. One less module to have to copypasta for, after a patch.

 

P.S. Maybe the best option of all would be to include all the possibilities into one lua, but comment out the more custom options, so people could easily activate the ones they want. And, of course, still not overwriting it :)

I will include the abstractions in a separate lua file.

The simpit builders will only have to uncomment a do_file instruction in default.lua

[Merlins51]

I wanted to bind the AA modes to the boat switch on the Warthog throttle. For anyone else who wants to do the same, here's the relevant code to insert into the Joystick default.lua:

 

{down = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_BoatSwitchForward, up = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_BoatSwitchCenter, cockpit_device_id = devices.HOTAS, value_down = 1, value_up = 1, name = _('A/A MODE FWD/GUN THREE POSITION'), category = { _('Toggle Switches'), _('HOTAS')}},
{down = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_BoatSwitchAft, up = iCommandPlane_HOTAS_BoatSwitchCenter, cockpit_device_id = devices.HOTAS, value_down = 1, value_up = 1, name = _('A/A MODE AFT/GUN THREE POSITION'), category = { _('Toggle Switches'), _('HOTAS')}},

Hey Zeus , most of these switch commands are really necessary for any module , you also added them to the M2000C , please don`t make it so one must fiddle with .lua files every update.

 

I`m not asking for automatic assignment for my Warthog like in the A10C , just to make life easier a bit.

[Nero.ger]

i agree with T_A, the abstractions are nessessary for any Warthog stick user. Everytjhing is neat and tidy in seperat Sections, so i dont get why it cant be in the standart LUA. if you dont have a Pit or stick with Toggl switches, just dont look into the Abstractions Section.

[SGT Coyle]

How can I get a simple "Flaps Auto" key command? I appreciate all the effort and work that's gone into this, but it doesn't help if I don't have a toggle switch.

 

For versatility sake shouldn't there be a key press for every switch option?

Edited December 2, 2017 by SGT Coyle

[Nero.ger]

took me a while to rialize there is indeed no Flaps auto in the default.lua

quick and untested(because the misses is here...):

 

{down=fcs_commands.Switch_FLAP_SELECT,cockpit_device_id=devices.VREST,value_down=0.5,name='flaps auto',category='shortcuts'},

[TorsteinE]

I request these lines be added as well, I now have the Master Modes on the Boat Switch, with AG forward, VSTOL backward, and NAV mode in the middle.

 

{down = iCommandHelicopter_PPR_button_T, up = iCommandHelicopter_PPR_button_K, cockpit_device_id = devices.HOTAS, value_down = 1, value_up = 1, name = _('Master Mode AG/NAV THREE POSITION'), category = { _('Toggle Switches'), _('HOTAS')}},
{down = iCommandHelicopter_PPR_button_H, up = iCommandHelicopter_PPR_button_K, cockpit_device_id = devices.HOTAS, value_down = 1, value_up = 1, name = _('Master Mode VSTOL/NAV THREE POSITION'), category = { _('Toggle Switches'), _('HOTAS')}},

[SGT Coyle]

How are you guys coming up with this code?

 

Nero.ger,

Your code works, Thanks

I'm clueless...where do I drop the rar file for JSCME to see?

 

thanks for all the hard work!

if you look at DCS files long enough they reaveal thier secrit :) or in other words " i like lines of code"

[Vladinsky]

thanks for all the hard work!

 

Extract the folder in the rar to your JSGME mods folder, as an example, mine looks like: DCS World\_MODS\AV8B Keybinds

[Gunfighter6]

Thank you sir.
