Possible Fix for Comm Menu Not staying up when button is pushed

[MTrenda]

Not sure if this has been addressed so here it is:

 

issue: When pushing the '\' for comms menu you must hold it down in order to select the submenus.

 

to fix this edit the following files:

 

Make a backup copy before editing.

Edit using Notepoad ++

 

<UserProfile>\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\P-51D\Keyboard.lau

edit line 32

From:

{combos = {{key = '\\'}}, down = iCommandToggleCommandMenu, up = iCommandToggleCommandMenu, name = 'COMM Communication menu', category = 'Communications'},

 

to:

{combos = {{key = "\\"}, }, down = iCommandToggleCommandMenu, name = "COMM Communication menu", category = "Communications"},

 

Remove the RED TEXT

 

<Program files>\Eagle Dynamics\dcs world\mods\aircrafts\p-51D\Inputs\P-51D\Keyboard\default.lau

 

edit line 55

 

From:

{combos = {{key = '\\'}}, down = iCommandToggleCommandMenu, up = iCommandToggleCommandMenu, name = 'COMM Communication menu', category = 'Communications'},

 

to:

{combos = {{key = "\\"}, }, down = iCommandToggleCommandMenu, name = "COMM Communication menu", category = "Communications"},

 

Remove the RED TEXT

The default is required incase you ever delete the one in your profile.

 

This change sets the function of the key from a Pressed state = action and Up state = action, to a Pressed state= action and Up state = no action. Now when you hit the comm key in the P-51 the menu will stay up and you can choose all the submenus without holding the comm '\' key.

 

 

Thanks
