Please let us hide unneeded controllers from the control binding menu


Recommended Posts

I'm sure I can't be the first person experiencing this, the epitome of first world problems, but I have a sim rig for racing games, and having every single connected controller appear in the DCS control binding menu makes setting up my keybinds for various aircraft much more tedious. I don't expect the game to know which controllers are to be ignored by default, but I would like to be able to right click on the column header and select "ignore" or "hide controller" to grey it out and move it to the right, after controllers that have not been hidden. Alternatively give us the ability to "prioritise" certain controllers to pin their columns to the left side, or just the ability to drag the columns around to our preference.

 

Currently we can disable each column, which is good for preventing accidentally binding a control to the wrong controller, but it doesn't help with the unwanted columns getting in the way of the controllers you actually want to use.

 

It's hardly the most pressing of issues, but I've just done a fresh install of the game and have found rebinding stuff rather tiresome. The other option is that I stop being lazy and just unplug my racing sim stuff from the wall when I want to play DCS, but I want a solution that doesn't require me to get up from my seat.

Yep. And that Control Setup screen could be way wider... This way there would be no need to scroll left-right all the time...

Being able to re-order the sequence left to right of your controllers would be useful as well, at they are scattered in illogical orders, meaning the flow is often broken by having to scroll left, right etc when binding controls.  Drag and drop re-order the controller names/groups they are shown would be appreciated here at least.

You can copy settings from the saved games folder by C and P if you still have them from the other install.

When doing a fresh install it is best to make a backup of all that is in the saved games folder first.

Then you can easily restore settings, missions, replay tracks. etc. Saves a lot of work.
