baza Posted February 4 Posted February 4 Hello all first off i dont think this is a bug. But wondered if you could help. My auto pilot will not always work its not mapped to anything i just click in cockpit. I can play the same mission over and over again sometimes it will work from get go, other times it wont work at all. i thought the mission i made had broke it some how. but today just started the weasel campaign and it wont work in there either. Like i said its not mapped fuel door is not open. i have tried a repair in dcs. Now the only thing i think it might be now is somehow my hotas might be interfering with it. i have a winwing orion 2 with f-16 stick. At first i thought the simappro might be issue. But dont think thats the case as turn it off and still had same problem. Im at a loss hopefully someone had the same issue and knows how to sort it. many thanks
Rongor Posted February 4 Posted February 4 (edited) Maybe start to describe the problem and explain exactly what you are doing. "not working" can mean so many things... Nobody has a clue what is going on by reading what you wrote so far. Edited February 4 by Rongor
Solution razo+r Posted February 4 Solution Posted February 4 Can you perhaps share a short track? Did you also make sure your stick is 100% centered? Either via calibration or with a small deadzone? Did you make sure the paddle switch is not mapped to a switch on your hardware? The paddle switch disables the autopilot. What Stick are you running? Some had success by updating their software. Some other topic about it:

Still learning When you try to map the paddle switch, what number do you see in the cell on the Controls page? If you see JOY_BTN8, you are doing it right. If you see JOY_BTN7, you did the assignment wrong. Check it please, and if you see JOY_BTN7, i will explain what did you do wrong. Edited February 6 by Razor18
