Main Weapon Safe Switch and other Keyboard Bindings


Recommended Posts

Posted

Currently there is just a toggle for the main weapon safe switch. For  important switches like this I would wish there would be a binding for UP/DOWN (safe/armed) as well. I would actually like that for all switches with multiple positions. There should be both: a toggle and bindings for every position.

+1, I would also extend this to the safety cover on the cyclic for both armed (open) and safe (closed).

There a lot of buttons that need an On/Off binding or up/down the auto pilot buttons are just one example that need this, in its current state you would need 8 separate bindings to switch the 4 autopilots on and off.

Hell, there are entire panels that have nothing at all.  I had to dig through the .luas to create my own for the APU-Engine start panel.

Why is the rum always gone!?!?!?!

A lot of these bindings also need an "on else off" option for physical switches users may have on their HOTAS throttle base or button boxes.

Well, it's early access.

So something like this is to expect in early access. I'm sure ED will add them later. But yes, a lot of key bindings are missing. 

 

More important is that they add both not just toggles but also ON/OFF keybindings. Some of us bought expensive gear with all those fine switches and buttons we want to use. 😉

For the autopilot there are several buttons for ON/OFF in the cockpit. So I do not think there will be a toggle in the future. The HOTAS has to toggle itself (CH gear can do it, and the virpil gear can do it).

Yes, that is indeed a must have.
