Push buttons in back?

[dresoccer4]

Might seem a silly question but, how do you push buttons and flip switches in the back of the bird?

LALT+C or double click middle mouse, changes from mouse view to clickable cockpit cursor.

Nothing much to click at the moment, I only found the station 6 radio control panel worked.

You can but no need to jump to the back you can setup bindings for ramp up, down, and fully down although it won’t move if you’ve got the rear gunner installed.

i was more looking for the immersion aspect of walking to the back and controlling things manually. but good to know about the keyboard shortcuts

One neat thing you can do is open the cargo hook hatch and guide the pilot in while doing mulitcrew. The station is also clickable

Pause TrackIR and then you can look around with the mouse and press buttons. No idea how it works in VR.

not using trackir or vr. just old fashioned mouse and keyboard

Okay, then you can look around like you do in any cockpit with the mouse.

found out the solution was to press rctrl+[ and rctrl+] to have the engineer actually walk back to different positions in the cabin. this was the only way to actually push the buttons in the back as far as I could tell. very neat feature. not a whole lot to go back there at the moment though but just fun to walk through the cabin while flying

Oh! Gotta try that!

Not exactly a tutorial, but a video showing the trap door in action, there's a couple positions there accessed by [ and ], you can fully look around in VR including sticking your head out the hole to guide the pilot. If you're not multicrewed, you can enable BOB and use joystick inputs to control. It's laid out in the video description.
