More keybinds needed

I wouldn't know what to do with those Lua files. You should put them into a OVGME Mod pack and offer them as a download. 

Now, that's where Quaggles and Munkwolf's repository comes in handy. You just copy the files to the correct place!

I don't use their software.

Yeah, I know. We have established that before. While you should look into it. It's not even software per say. It's just a bunch of pre-made Lua files, so you don't have to mess with it. And only one file to copy/deploy after every update.

"The correct place"............ If I were good at finding the lua files I probably wouldn't need the other two software items. I could just do it my self and create a mod I could install and uninstall. 

The controls he has done new lua for are not really a problem with me, I really want the fuel selector switch to work as the Jug and mustangs does.

That's the whole point. You don't need to make mod to install after every update. And you don't have to update said mod every time you need something new. You just apply the one mod after update, Quaggles. The rest is kept in Saved Games. I give up.

Thanks for the input, but like I said, the Hog as is, isn't that bad, and his fixes aren't a niggling necessity for me.

The developer has fixed some of the weapons-related bindings. See edits in my earlier post: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/375038-more-keybinds-needed/#elControls_5662978_menu

Posted a question in here about not able to key bind the auto start and auto stop, then found this dedicated F4I-1D section…

If you want to bind it to a button on a game controller, you need to make a very simple edit in the file "default.lua" under "disk location:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\F4U-1D\Input\joystick" by copying a line from the "default.lua" under "disk location\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\F4U-1D\Input\keyboard" and pasting it into the file under "...\joystick". Since most people don't want to get into that, I won't go into more detail now.

Hi and thanks. I am familiar with editing the .lua file. Just did not think about that as I am not an expert into this type of details but can edit with confidence if guided.

These are the two lua lines for auto-start and auto-stop:

{combos = {{key='Home',reformers={'LWin'}}}, down = device_commands.AutoStart, cockpit_device_id = devices.AUTOSTART, value_down = 1.0, name = _('Autostart Procedure'), category = _('Engine')},
{combos = {{key='End',reformers={'LWin'}}}, down = device_commands.AutoStop, cockpit_device_id = devices.AUTOSTART, value_down = 1.0, name = _('Autostop Procedure'), category = _('Engine')},
