Support for 3-Position switch for Autopilot PITCH (ALT/off/ALT Hold)

[durka-durka]

As you can see in the image below, the autopilot ROLL has support for a 3-pos switch, but the Autopilot PITCH switch (ALT/off/ATT Hold) does not.  This would make programing physical switches (since I suck at coding) much easier if both autopilot switches had the 3-pos support.

Agree, this would be helpful.

Im pretty sure I got both of these switches on 3-way, but with the dcs-bios I assume.

Hobel, it better be done by ED so we won't need to change files in the the main DIR of game. It's 2 seconds of work for them.

I am no longer able to bind my 3 position switch to AP alt hold, att hold and off. Where did it go?

They are still present and working for me in the current OB 2.7.17.29140

If you just updated, likely you had manually added the option one way or another and an update will overwrite that file and mean you have to re-add it.

this doesn't disengage the ap when the switch goes to neutral position. 

normally I used to use a modified lua file but it doesn't work anymore either

Well, I forgot to remark, that I'm using the DX128 script for my TM Warthog. The script allows you to bind every single button/switch position.
