777coletrain Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I would really appreciate the ability to swap to the back seat when the engines are off and the canopy is open to preset some switches before flying with solo flight selected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

felixx75 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I honestly don't understand the need.... "Solo Flight" simulates a real solo flight. In this case you will not have to switch anything in the rear cockpit. You would never fly a combat mission in the F-15E without a WSO. But if you want to fly alone on a multiplayer server, for example, the "Solo Flight" option should not be checked, but "Disable Multicrew". This way you fly alone, because nobody can enter the 2nd cockpit, but you can still switch between front and rear. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something just doesn't feel right to me seeing someone else in my plane that isn't actually there. Even if you are going on a solo flight you would go to the back seat and make sure all of the switches are set correctly so I don't see it as being unrealistic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything you need to do for a real solo flight, you can do in the front cockpit, otherwise the aircraft would not be certified for a solo flight. Use the "disable multicrew" option and everything is ok. If you don't like the WSO model, don't look at it. "Solo Flight" is proper simulated, and this is good as it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, you can wish whatever you want to, but why should one set the TEWS or CMD in the rear cockpit, if nobody will be there? And why would you need a TEWS anyways, because nobody will fly a F-15E solo in a combat mission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall the manual having any checklists/direction for solo flights. Also, "as required" means just that: as required. If you're not going into combat then you leave those switches off because they aren't required.... That said, I do feel there needs to be more keybinds for WSO switches that can be operated from the pilot seat. We have keybinds for the TPOD ON/STBY/OFF and the CMD Chaff/Flare/Both, so why can't we get keybinds for laser arm, RWR, and CMD knob?

But if one is good with editing the lua control files, maybe it's possible to open the WSO lua and copy the relevant controls to the pilot controls? @Munkwolf @LeCuvier I'm a totally off for suggesting this? Cheers! Edit: To be honest. I think most WSO controls should be available from the pilot's seat so we can make our own "Jester" through VoiceAttack.

But I hesitate to start making additions at this early point in time, because I expect RAZBAM to add a fair number of bindings through Early access, and then I have to clean up by removing the duplicates. The same consideration applies to the many axis bindings that are no there yet.

Fully understandable, but if they get included in like Munkwolf's repository being pushed with Quaggles injector, there shouldn't be any need to clean up anything. Sort of the beauty with it! Cheers!

All commands for modules are available for each seat - the distinction is just what is defined in the input lua files. Can copy all commands for one seat into the other's input lua file and it should work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No duplicates (usually). If the device/command/value are the same for a stock command and an injected command, then Quaggles mod doesn't include the injected command. Sometimes there will be a duplicate if for some reason a different value is used. The label will change over if it's different than the injected one. The assigned keybind persists too (since it goes by the device/command/value). If using custom keybinds there's really no reason not to use Quaggles injector unless one is averse to mods or likes doing things the hard way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"CMD Operational Mode", "TGP Laser Switch", etc.. in same "Rear Cockpit" group as the tpod power and cmd dispenser selection. will add controls for rwr later today. just finished up first pass at wso keybinds. pilot: https://github.com/Munkwolf/dcs-community-keybinds/blob/main/InputCommands/F-15E/Input/F-15E/joystick/default.lua wso: https://github.com/Munkwolf/dcs-community-keybinds/blob/main/InputCommands/F-15E/Input/F-15E_WSO/joystick/default.lua 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
