Mereck Posted July 18, 2020 Posted July 18, 2020 Hi guys, Apparently since the latest open beta was rolled out I can't get the hog's autopilot to work properly anymore. Basically the only way for it to work is to press and HOLD the autopilot button (A), which is rather inconvenient. Just in case I removed all my mods (only had SRS and Tacview anyway), verified game files (Steam version) and even unplugged external controllers (Thrustmaster Warthog + Saitek Pro Flight Rudders), but even when trying to control the plane with keyboard and mouse the same problem occurs. I even checked that no controller whatsoever was using the same A button one way or another but it's not binded to anything else than the keyboard key. Had the problem on campaign missions and on instant action free flight (and cold start). dcs.log attached.dcs.log
Mereck Posted July 18, 2020 Author Posted July 18, 2020 Just realized that I didn't report it in the Hog's forum and that it was already reported... and I can't delete my own thread...
VeeSPIKE Posted July 20, 2020 Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) Not my fix - from Hello all! For those of you who fly the A-10C and can't engage the autopilot, it turns out some refactoring in the A-10C cockpit code made it so the engage/disengage signal is sent twice. To fix it, navigate to your DCS data directory, and replace line 733 of Mods/aircraft/A10-C/Cockpit/Scripts/clickabledata.lua with the following line: elements["PTR-LCP-AUTOPILOT-ENGAGE"] = default_button( _("Autopilot Engage/Disengage"), devices.AUTOPILOT, device_commands.Button_2, 131, nil, nil, false) Be sure that it's all on one line.
