fixed No command for course setting knob

[tehnerd]

What is the name of this knob in control menu? Having trouble to find (tried both RNI and ADI but these two seems something else)

It's not available (unless added recently), I use a custom binding to create it. In PATH\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\Mi-24P\Input\Mi_24P_pilot\joystick\default.lua I add these lines:

-- Course setter
{cockpit_device_id = devices.GREBEN, pressed = greben_commands.ZK, value_pressed = -0.025, name = _('Course Setter - Left (Slow)'), category = {_('Instrument Panel'), _('Custom')}},
{cockpit_device_id = devices.GREBEN, pressed = greben_commands.ZK, value_pressed = 0.025, name = _('Course Setter - Right (Slow)'), category = {_('Instrument Panel'), _('Custom')}},
{cockpit_device_id = devices.GREBEN, pressed = greben_commands.ZK, value_pressed = -0.05, name = _('Course Setter - Left'), category = {_('Instrument Panel'), _('Custom')}},
{cockpit_device_id = devices.GREBEN, pressed = greben_commands.ZK, value_pressed = 0.05, name = _('Course Setter - Right'), category = {_('Instrument Panel'), _('Custom')}},
{cockpit_device_id = devices.GREBEN, pressed = greben_commands.ZK, value_pressed = -0.1, name = _('Course Setter - Left (Fast)'), category = {_('Instrument Panel'), _('Custom')}},
{cockpit_device_id = devices.GREBEN, pressed = greben_commands.ZK, value_pressed = 0.1, name = _('Course Setter - Right (Fast)'), category = {_('Instrument Panel'), _('Custom')}},

IIRC I borrowed them from this project: https://github.com/Munkwolf/dcs-community-keybinds

Does it matter where in the .lua this is added?  I copy/pasted this into the bottom of the text and I can't find the binds.

There are probably sections where it will work, maybe you're outside that. I paste these at about line 600 just before CLOCK section. Don't remember why now, but it works

Hi ED Team, pls to add it. 

In fact, I'm a bit surprised that the settings don't include such an important knob as setting of course on the RMI/HSI. Pretty please!

Request made.
