Keybind Request Gun Charging

[GeoS72]

A keybind for charging the guns would be awesome!

[UncleStains]

Agreed.

Also, there are keybinds for gunsight power and brightness but they don't appear to work.

Would also be nice to have keybinds for each position of the fuel valve, supercharger, and mixture.

Loving this module!

[GeoS72]

UncleStains, I already have a bug report for that keybind issue.

[Bedon]

Agreed.

We could also have more options like

Axis for Cowl flaps, intercooler, oil cooler, gunsight light, etc.

Ignition individual and both, etc.

some toggle, like parking brake, arrest hook, etc.

Some buttons are missing like gun heat I couldnt find.

But I believe that over time they will add more to make it more complete like the other modules. Because now at launch the configuration standard was only on - off which is not enough to configure all the hardware we have.

All weapon switches would be super helpful. It's so many switches to try to hit with a mouse in flight, I am arming everything on the ground. 

The mappings exist but are not currently working for Gun Sight light, the bomb panel and the whole rocket panel. 

I second that axis for cowl flaps is needed.

Using the landing gear as a speed brake needs a seperate keybind or toggle of somekind. Unless I'm missing something, that and the gun charging already mentioned, are what I'm struggling with.

Keybinds for the rocket box controls would be handy, its so dark down there and a very awkward angle to see anything

I was so confused to find no keybinds for the rocket box control (and gun charge/safe). These are essential. Especially in VR.

Already existing (Toggle for speedbrakes).

Thank you. Finally found it under air brakes.

[GeoS72]

It looks like the Gun Charge key binds were added/fixed in the early July patch. They can be found under:

Guns, left, charge OFF
Guns, left, charge ON

Guns, right, charge OFF
Guns, right, charge ON

Need keybinds, axes, and multi-position switches for ALL the things, so they can be mapped to controls in a simpit.

None of these were controlled by lever position on the real machine. You pressed and held them until they opened/closed where you wanted them and then released the control.

The flap control handle, however, should ABSOLUTELY be an axis.

[M1Combat]

Agreed with Saxie here...  The three cooling/temp controls in the cockpit are hold forward/hold backward to open/close.  More like the coolant controls in the Mustang.  Makes more sense to just have a button you hold then just like you'd do in the plane.  That said I can see adding them for accessibility reasons maybe...  so I'm not exactly against it.
