maverick90 Posted April 19, 2024 Posted April 19, 2024 I would like to request DCS to implement a better way of moving/panning/zooming the camera while inside the cockpit. I like how MSFS 2020 you can press and hold down the right mouse button and move the mouse around to pan and the scrollwheel to zoom in and out, and the arrow keys to move fwd, aft, up and down heightwise. This makes operating the plane so much more fluid. Rather than having to use the numpad to move around.
Exorcet Posted April 19, 2024 Posted April 19, 2024 You can just change the controls to match MSFS, for the most part, as DCS inputs are customizable. There's no reason to change the defaults and that could negatively impact people using the controls as is. Moving around the cockpit with the mouse also works in DCS, you just need to use the command for it. Was it double middle mouse click?

SkateZilla Posted April 20, 2024 Posted April 20, 2024 (edited) Binding LALT+C to Middle Mouse button accomplishes this.

Also is there a keyboard shortcut to reset the camera back to the default position?

Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk I know that but I would like it to behave more like how it does in MSFS 2020. Where you have to hold down the RMB and then move the mouse to pan. I don't like how you have to click to activate it. I want to be able just to hold down and then move the mouse to pan around. If you understand what I mean.
