Key strokes not working

[pcalvert]

Hi,

 

I am getting problems with keystrokes. For example. the key for Nav lights turns on the cockpit panel lights in the A10 - also I can't close the canopy - the keystroke doesn't work. I have tried changing it (different key) but still won't work. Very frustrating!!! It seems one of several (route following autopilot - just holds the A10 in a turning circle)... can anyone help????

1) It sounds like you made some changes in Options/controls but did you make them for the correct aircraft? Make sure you select A-10 in the drop down before making the change.

Also, make sure you do not click the "Save Profile" at the top as it has some issues. Just click OK when you are done and the changes will be saved in the right spot.

 

2) There are 5 or 6 different autopilot settings, one of which is as you discribe "Attitude Hold" check the manual for the full explaination of each type.

Are you using the correct modifier key? Nav lights is RCtrl+L (i.e. the right hand side control key, plus L). Cockpit lights are L. If you use LCtrl+L then you'll just be turning the cockpit lights on and off as the modifier won't have any effect (there's nothing bound to LCtrl+L).

Yes I've done both - using the correct aircarft etc. Funny thing is that some keys work perfectly while others don't. For example although in the options I have nav lights as RCtrl+L - this works now but release weapon doesn't I've tried changing the key in options and then changed it back to the original - but it doesn't work unless I press the keystroke several times!!! Weird. Also when I try route follwing mode with the autopilot - the aircraft follows the route but also dives the aircraft into the ground! - any suggestions would be appreciated... thanks
