Ourorborus Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 Dear ED, Please allow us to click the canopy rail “towel rack” to give the Salute! command to the deck crew to signal launch. Thanks! You Sir are a genius!!!!! +1000
ThatSillyGinge Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 This is a genius idea, and would be much more immersive! I'm also a big fan of BMGZ06's suggestion that the clickpoint could also be used to trigger other kinds of gesticulations in-flight.:laugh:
Uxi Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 I use a button on my hotas to launch my Tomcat, Is that not available on the hornet? It is now. You can map it now. I already changed the default to be the same Left-U I've been using on the Tomcat for months. The idea of the towel rack rocks though I'm about to put it in Voice Attack anyway.

Mav3rick Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 In the FAQ Wags did say that there is a "Salute" key bind of LShft+LCtrl+S. Wouldn't it be also great to have a "ball" call key bind as well There is a "Hornet Ball" that you can bind on your HOTA/keyboard for the F/A-18 :thumbup: Instagram : @dcs_pics Specs and modules : Config : GTX 1050TI 16GB RAM RYZEN 7 1700X HOTAS Saitek X52 PRO Homemade TrackIR ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Modules and mods : Mirage 2000C - F/A-18C Hornet - DCS Supercarrier - A4 Skyhawk - PC21 - Alphajet
Whiskeybravo Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 +1 for the OP. This would be awesome in VR with PointCTRL. WB.
Terry Dactil Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 Until we get a dedicated towel rail click-point, perhaps we can modify the nearest existing one. Does anyone know how to change the result of a click on the mirror to give the salute keystrokes? Probably need to modify a .lua file somewhere. :helpsmilie: (I have managed to get Voice Attack to recognize the mirror keystrokes if done on a keyboard and convert it to the salute command, but so far cannot get it to recognize mouse or pointCtrl clicks).
