fixed Ka-50 - "UV-26 Change dispensing board Left-Both-Right" not cycling correctly

[NightMan]

With version 2.8 the "UV-26 Change dispensing board Left-Both-Right" cycles the switch towards BOTH and then to the RIGHT side but no longer cycles it back to the LEFT side.

Clicking the switch manually still works properly.

[NightMan]

There are too many incongruences.

For example:

There are:
- "Gyro/Mag/Manual heading - down";
- "Gyro/Mag/Manual heading - up".

Ok, that's bearable.

But there are:
- "UV-26 Change dispensing board - next";
- "UV-26 Change dispensing board - prev";
- "UV-26 Change dispensing board - LEFT";
- "UV-26 Change dispensing board - BOTH";
- "UV-26 Change dispensing board - RIGHT".

Please; standardize things.

Either:
- ALWAYS use "next/prev" and "up/down", as in the Gyro/Mag new method;
- ALWAYS use "next/prev" and "up/down" combined with all the other possible settings, as in the "UV-26 Change dispensing board..." method.

Mixing methods becomes VERY confusing and difficult to setup.

This was intentional. The UV-26 switch goes to the left/right, not up/down.

And of course, we couldn't have two controls named "UV-26 Change dispensing board - LEFT". Which is why they were named "next"/"prev".

[NightMan]

That's not my point.

Of course it goes left/right and not up/down.

My point is that some switches only have the up/down or left/right options, while others have the individual positions, like LEFT, BOTH and RIGHT.

Either all have only up/down or left/right or all have also the individual positions.

Standardization.

Following the same reasoning, the Gyro switch should also have GYRO, MAG and MANUAL controls, don't you agree?.

I understand what you ask for.

Sicne we all have different setups (HOTAS or not, VR or not, mouse or not, home cockpit or not...), I agree we should be given all possibilities (toggle, 2-pos, 3-pos, 4-pos, and individual positions) so every player would be happy. But this takes some time that devs might want to spend on other things such as fixing bugs and adding new features.

Please make a list of the individual controls you need, and I'll request them.

[NightMan]

Uufffff. Like you say, that takes some time!

It's not so much what I need but the way I think or am allowed to think.

Just try to standardize the system.

I can adapt, but I am a bit OCD, and I like to use the same reasoning everyhere.
