Arink429 Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) Hi. In my cockpit I use a seat with ejection handle as real does, and it's no practical pulling three times for the ejection. Triple action is fantastic for avoid mistakes pushing a joystick button or keyboard, but not for a dedicated handle. Please, add an option for ejection with single action. Thank you! Antonio.

=Panther= Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 I understand why they went with the triple option. I'm sure you may have already tried this, or maybe it's not feasible. A work around would to use an external application like xpadder or joy2key to map a quick macro to your handle. I'm not trying to discredit your wish, just adding a possible work-around in the mean time.

Nooch Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 Using macros on your mouse / keyboard software perhaps? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
MikeMikeJuliet Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 ED should add an unbound (meaning not even a keyboard key for it) key for single-press ejection as an alternate to the current 3x method. That could then be bound to whichever control the user desires. This should satisfy all possible users. Regards, MikeMikeJuliet DCS Finland | SF squadron
Reflected Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 I actually really like the fact we need to press a button 3 times. Pressing just one button once can be done too fast, it would be kind of a "cheat". Pressing a button 3 times is closer to the time required to pull the ejection seat handle.

Svend_Dellepude Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) ED could just add a delay from the key is pressed and until the ejection takes place. Or make it so you would have to keep the key pressed for xxx miliseconds.

Kang Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 From the land of short-term solutions: if you built yourself a cockpit with a proper ejection handle, couldn't you program the MCU to send the signal in triplicate?
Johnny_Rico Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 Lol at Kang, good one A macro programmed onto a joystick would do this with a single press METAR weather for DCS World missions Guide to help out new DCS MOOSE Users -> HERE Havoc Company Dedicated server info Connect IP: 94.23.215.203 SRS enabled - freqs - Main = 243, A2A = 244, A2G = 245 Please contact me HERE if you have any server feedback or METAR issues/requests

You indeed can, but the less external programs you need, the better. Plus, not everybody knows this is a possibility, or knows how it is done. DCS Finland | SF squadron

MikeMikeJuliet Posted April 18, 2018 Posted April 18, 2018 plus it's more safe to avoid "mishap ejections" by pushing the wrong buttons :) Which is exactly why I suggest adding a single-press button with nothing bound to it by default DCS Finland | SF squadron
Kang Posted April 18, 2018 Posted April 18, 2018 You indeed can, but the less external programs you need, the better. Plus, not everybody knows this is a possibility, or knows how it is done. You are certainly right, but I thought it was rather safe to assume that somebody who set up their own cockpit arrangement shouldn't have much trouble with that.
MikeMikeJuliet Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 You are certainly right, but I thought it was rather safe to assume that somebody who set up their own cockpit arrangement shouldn't have much trouble with that. A fair point, especially with even lite-pit builders... DCS Finland | SF squadron
