requested Ejection arming lever

[SickSidewinder9]

Hot starting the plane or using autostart puts the ejection arming lever down.  It should never be put down until you are on the runway.  If I remember correctly, hot started Hornets don't arm the ejection seat and/or it doesn't do it during auto starter.  I don't remember exactly because I haven't used autostart in a long time.

And it completely ridiculous that after all this time, there's no keybind for it.  Yes, I know it can be manually added, but I couldn't seem to get 1 keybind to work for arm/disarm and whenever the game updates it overwrites it.  It's long past time to fix stuff like this.  It's alt-e on the Hornet do arm/disarm and it needs to be added to the Viper.

 

This, among other things, is what I'm talking about when I say there is a lack of consistency between modules to the point that it's like the teams didn't talk to each other.

If I remember correctly

FInd me the info when you are sure and I will bring it to the team. Thanks. 

I'll just take the rest of the post as venting. Please make sure you are giving us all the info when reporting a bug. Thanks.

Viper driver here... there's a solution in a thread I started 2 years ago, editing the .lua isn't that much work but I can't help you with the Hornet however. This is another one with the proper .lua settings.

Please, ED, give us the arming lever, the pneu/elec switch and a simple "ejection" function with just one keypress, I am asking for this simple grant for years! Homepits usually get ejection seat handles, one pull on the handle and off you go. We don't pull them 3x in short succession and usually we don't want to add 3rd party software just for this "three times" and don't install 3 switches for 3 times CTR-E presses. Pleeeease, it can't be that hard to implement!

It's not venting.  There is no keybinding for arm/disarm ejection seat as there should be.

If you want us to take these reports seriously, please report without the added sass please.

Thanks, I will take a look. This seems like a very reasonable request.

Sorry for the delay, I have requested this now, thanks!
