Need Help Adding Axes to .lua

I've built some custom button boxes and would like to get some additional axes added for the tomcat. I was able to get the wing sweep lever working with the help of the bindings request thread in the bugs sub forum. I tried to use the same logic for the volume panel but can't seem to get it to work.

 

Here is whats in the clickable.lua for sidewinder volume for an example:

 

-- Pilot TONE VOLUME panel

 

elements["PNT_2039"] = default_axis(_("Sidewinder Volume"), devices.ICS, device_commands.RADIO_ICS_Vol_Sidewinder, cockpit_args.RADIO_ICS_Vol_Sidewinder, 0, 0.1, false, false)

 

 

Here what I tried to add to the default.lua in the joystick folder :

 

{action=device_commands.RADIO_ICS_Vol_Sidewinder, cockpit_device_id=devices.RADIO_ICS_Vol_Sidewinder, name=_('Sidewinder Volume')},

 

It adds it to the axis list and lets me assign it but once in the game it does not adjust the volume knob and I get an error message in the top right corner of the screen saying "Unhandled Proxy Command 3397 val=nil" when the knob reaches 100%.

 

Any help would be much appreciated

I think your cockpit ID is wrong... Try this :

 

 

{action = device_commands.RADIO_ICS_Vol_Sidewinder, cockpit_device_id=devices.ICS, name = _("ICS Sidewinder Volume")},

 

 

You'll probably have to set your axis as slider and play with invert/deadzone/saturation. Last time I tried, only 50% of the axis was usable.

 

If you want more axis (haven't tested all commands, some may not work) :

 

 

{action = device_commands.AHRS_LatCorrection, cockpit_device_id=devices.AHRS, name = _("X_Compass LAT Correction")},

{action = device_commands.RADIO_UHF_BRT_Pilot, cockpit_device_id=devices.ARC159, name = _("X_UHF ARC-159 Display Brightness Pilot")},

{action = device_commands.RADIO_UHF_VOL_Pilot, cockpit_device_id=devices.ARC159, name = _("X_UHF ARC-159 Volume Pilot")},

{action = device_commands.RADIO_UHF_VOL_RIO, cockpit_device_id=devices.ARC159, name = _("X_UHF ARC-159 Volume RIO")},

{action = device_commands.RADIO_UHF_Remote_DISP_BRT_Pilot, cockpit_device_id=devices.ARC159, name = _("X_UHF Radio Remote Display Brightness Pilot")},

{action = device_commands.RADIO_UHF_Remote_DISP_BRT_RIO, cockpit_device_id=devices.ARC159, name = _("X_UHF Radio Remote Display Brightness RIO")},

{action = device_commands.RADIO_VHF_BRT_RIO, cockpit_device_id=devices.ARC182, name = _("X_VHF ARC-182 Display Brightness RIO")},
