Hotas Warthog - BS2, throttle switches

[alexej21]

Hi,

I'm a new owner of the Hotas Warthog.

My question is regarding the switches on throttle.

Is there any chance to change lua controls of DCS for Laser / Rate of fire/ Ammo type etc. to have two buttons instead of just one?

 

Example:

Laser ON/OFF - one button

Rate of fire ON/OFF - one button

 

I would like to have:

Laser ON - one button

Laser OFF - second button

 

I used TARGET Software and assigned same function on both position of the switch, so now I can turn laser on by moving switch up and turn laser off by moving switch down.

 

Problem is when I have switch in incorrect position during startup then the laser is ON in the down position and OFF in the up position.

 

Thank you

Try to check "Synchronize Cockpit Controls with HOTAS Controls at Mission Start" in your options.

I could be wrong, but doesn’t the „on“-state of the switch mimic a button pressed (when the switch is up the s/w sees it as a pressed button)? If that is so, you could simply assign the function in the game et voilà.

(e.g. Laser On = switch up = button pressed vice versa)
