LUA codings for missing/broken keybinds

[Bog9y]

Hi guys,

 

For the past few weeks I have been busy coding the LUA files whilst building my VR AV8B home cockpit. I have shared these with Razbam and hopefully they will implement them at some point. In case this doesn't happen I would like to share these with you.  I am not an expert coder by any means, so it may not be perfect but it works. 

 

The main additions are for the joystick lua file but add the coding to the keyboard lua file if you wish to use keyboard key combinations for a switch position (mainly OFF positions).  I use RS Mapper to enable a switch to function in the OFF position. For example, a 2 way stich has an ON and OFF position. In DCS you can only trigger an instruction in the ON position. With RS Mapper I have assigned a keyboard command to when the switch is moved to the OFF position. This keyboard command effectively gives me 2 inputs with 1 switch. The POKEYS software can also code this if you are making a home cockpit with one of their cards. So, in general I have not added keyboard coding for every switch/button, but usually they would have the option to assign a keyboard command for the OFF position (or the center position if it's a 3 position switch).  The only knob I can not get coded correctly is the BINGO fuel one, if anybody has this coded please share. 

 

So here is what I have done to the lua file:

 

The first section is JOYSTICK SWITCH ABSTRACTIONS:

 

I added this to enable the Antiskid test function to also work and switch back to ON.

 

 {down = fcs_commands.Switch_ANTISKID,       up = fcs_commands.Switch_ANTISKID,      cockpit_device_id=devices.FLIGHTCONTROLS,   value_down=1.0, value_up=0.5,   name = _('Anti-Skid TEST else ON'),                category = _('Joystick Switch Abstractions')},

 

I added these for the FLAP POWER SWITCH & the LANDING LIGHT SWITCH:

{down = fcs_commands.Handle_PARKING_BRAKE,  up = fcs_commands.Handle_PARKING_BRAKE, cockpit_device_id=devices.FLIGHTCONTROLS,    value_down=1.0, value_up=0.0,    name = _('Parking Brake Lever OFF else ON'),    category = _('Joystick Switch Abstractions')},
    {down = fcs_commands.Switch_FLAP_PWR,    up = fcs_commands.Switch_FLAP_RESET,   cockpit_device_id=devices.VREST,            value_down=1.0, value_up=0.5,   name = _('Flaps Power RESET else ON'),                category = _('Joystick Switch Abstractions')},
    {down = fcs_commands.Switch_FLAP_PWR,    up = fcs_commands.Switch_FLAP_PWR,   cockpit_device_id=devices.VREST,            value_down=0.0, value_up=0.5,   name = _('Flaps Power OFF else ON'),                category = _('Joystick Switch Abstractions')},  
    {down = ext_light_commands.Switch_LANDING_LT,  up = ext_light_commands.Switch_LANDING_LT,  cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 1,0, value_up=0.5, name = _('Landing Light APP else HVR'),                       category = _('Joystick Switch Abstractions')},
    {down = ext_light_commands.Switch_LANDING_LT,  up = ext_light_commands.Switch_LANDING_LT,  cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 0,0, value_up=0.5, name = _('Landing Light OFF else HVR'),                     category = _('Joystick Switch Abstractions')}, 

MASTER MODES -  NO CHANGE
HUD CONTROLS -  NO CHANGE

VSTOL CONTROLS: 

Added this to enable FLAP BIT BUTTON:

{down = fcs_commands.Button_FLAP_BIT, up = fcs_commands.Button_FLAP_BIT, cockpit_device_id = devices.VREST, value_down = 1.0, value_up = 0.0, name = _('Flaps BIT Button'), category = _('VSTOL Controls')},
    

FLIGHT CONTROL - NO CHANGE
SAAHS - NO CHANGE

 

-- Hydraulic & Mechanical

Added these lines to enable keybinding for the canopy locking lever:

        {down = misc_commands.canopy_lock_lever, up = misc_commands.canopy_lock_lever,         cockpit_device_id = devices.FLIGHTCONTROLS, value_down = 1, value_up = 0,    name = _('CANOPY LOCKING LEVER toggle'),            category = _('Hydraulic & Mechanical')},
    

Created a new category for the ECM panel and added these lines to be able to assign a rotary switch to the EXP and ECM knobs :

-- ECM Control Panel
        {down = rwr_commands.Knob_EXP,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 0.00,     name = _('EXP Decoy Dispenser Control : OFF'),            category = _('ECM Control panel')},
    {down = rwr_commands.Knob_EXP,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 0.25,     name = _('EXP Decoy Dispenser Control: AUTO'),        category = _('ECM Control panel')},
    {down = rwr_commands.Knob_EXP,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 0.50,     name = _('EXP Decoy Dispenser Control: UP'),        category = _('ECM Control panel')},
    {down = rwr_commands.Knob_EXP,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 0.75,     name = _('EXP Decoy Dispenser Control: DOWN'),            category = _('ECM Control panel')},
        {down = rwr_commands.Knob_EXP,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 1.00,     name = _('EXP Decoy Dispenser Control: RWR'),            category = _('ECM Control panel')},
        {down = rwr_commands.Knob_ECM,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 0.00,     name = _('Jammer Control Mode: OFF'),            category = _('ECM Control panel')},
    {down = rwr_commands.Knob_ECM,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 0.25,     name = _('Jammer Control Mode: STBY'),        category = _('ECM Control panel')},

    {down = rwr_commands.Knob_ECM,        cockpit_device_id = devices.EWS,    value_down = 1.00,     name = _('Jammer Control Mode: RPT'),            category = _('ECM Control panel')},

 

ENGINE & FUEL:

Added this for the Fuel quantity indicator to be assigned to a 30 degree rotary switch.  

 

{down = fqi_commands.FuelSelector,    cockpit_device_id = devices.FQIS,    value_down = 0.0,     name = _('FQI: INT'),                                 category = _('Engine & Fuel')},
    {down = fqi_commands.FuelSelector,    cockpit_device_id = devices.FQIS,    value_down = 0.33,     name = _('FQI Mode: TOT'),                                      category = _('Engine & Fuel')},
    {down = fqi_commands.FuelSelector,    cockpit_device_id = devices.FQIS,    value_down = 0.66,     name = _('FQI Mode: FEED'),                                 category = _('Engine & Fuel')},
    {down = fqi_commands.FuelSelector,    cockpit_device_id = devices.FQIS,    value_down = 0.99,     name = _('FQI Mode: BIT'),                               category = _('Engine & Fuel')},
    {down = fqi_commands.FuelSelector,    cockpit_device_id = devices.FQIS,    value_down = -0.33,     name = _('FQI Mode: WING'),                        category = _('Engine & Fuel')},
    {down = fqi_commands.FuelSelector,    cockpit_device_id = devices.FQIS,    value_down = -0.66,     name = _('FQI Mode: INBD'),                        category = _('Engine & Fuel')},
    {down = fqi_commands.FuelSelector,    cockpit_device_id = devices.FQIS,    value_down = -0.99,     name = _('FQI Mode: OUTBD'),                        category = _('Engine & Fuel')},

 

ECS: 

 

Added these lines to enable all the switches on the ECS panel. The TEMP controller dial is in the AXIS section. 

 

{down = ecs_commands.Switch_FWD_EQUIP,                cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 0,    name = _('Fwd Equipment Bay NORM'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},         
    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_FWD_EQUIP,                cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 0.5,    name = _('Fwd Equipment Bay ECS Switch'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},         
    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_FWD_EQUIP,                cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 1,    name = _('Fwd Equipment Bay RESET'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},  
    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_AFT_EQUIP,                cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 0,    name = _('AFT Equipment Bay OFF'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},

    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_AFT_EQUIP,                cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 1,    name = _('AFT Equipment Bay RESET'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},
    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_CABIN,                        cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 1,    name = _('CABIN DEFOG NORM'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},         
    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_CABIN,                        cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 0.5,  name = _('CABIN DEFOG'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},         
    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_CABIN,                        cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 0,    name = _('CABIN DEFOG MAX'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},
    {down = ecs_commands.Switch_PRESS,                        cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, value_down = 1,    name = _('PRESS NORM'),      category = _('Environmental Control')},

ELEC PANEL:

Added DC TEST switch function:

{down = elec_commands.Switch_DC_TEST,             cockpit_device_id = devices.ELECTRIC, value_down = 1,    name = _('DC Test Switch STBY'),    category = _('Electrical Panel')},
        {down = elec_commands.Switch_DC_TEST,             cockpit_device_id = devices.ELECTRIC, value_down = 0.5,    name = _('DC Test Switch OFF'),            category = _('Electrical Panel')},
        {down = elec_commands.Switch_DC_TEST,             cockpit_device_id = devices.ELECTRIC, value_down = 0,    name = _('DC Test Switch MAIN'),    category = _('Electrical Panel')},
    

Pilot & Seat controls - NO CHANGE
HOTAS - NO CHANGE 

LEFT & RIGHT MPCD - NO CHANGE

 

-- ARMAMENT CONTROL PANEL

Added the following lines to be able to assign a rotary switch to the manual bomb fuzing knob and the selective jettison control:

 {down = smc_commands.Knob_Bomb_Fuze,    cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = 0.0,     name = _('WPN MAN CONTROL : NORM'),                       category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_Bomb_Fuze,    cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = 0.33,     name = _('WPN MAN CONTROL : N/T'),                   category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_Bomb_Fuze,    cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = 0.66,     name = _('WPN MAN CONTROL : N'),            category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_Bomb_Fuze,    cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = 0.99,     name = _('WPN MAN CONTROL : T'),                category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_JETT,            cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = -1.0,     name = _('Jettison Mode Selector : STA'),               category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_JETT,            cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = -0.5,     name = _('Jettison Mode Selector : STOR'),               category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_JETT,            cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = 0.0,     name = _('Jettison Mode Selector : SAFE'),        category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_JETT,        cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = 0.5,     name = _('Jettison Mode Selector : CMBT'),            category = _('Armament Control')},
       {down = smc_commands.Knob_JETT,        cockpit_device_id = devices.SMC,    value_down = 1.0,     name = _('Jettison Mode Selector : FUEL'),            category = _('Armament Control')},
 

UFC - NO CHANGE

ODU - NO CHANGE

COMMS - NO CHANGE

MISC PANEL:

I noticed that the Last 2 lines in this section is actually wrong, the name is "Mission Computer mode AUTO/OFF or OVRD/OFF". This in fact controls the DP switch. I have recoded this to be correct with these 3 lines:

{down = misc_commands.Switch_MC_Power,                cockpit_device_id = devices.MSC, value_down = 1.0, name = _('Mission Computer Mode OVRD'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},
    {down = misc_commands.Switch_MC_Power,                cockpit_device_id = devices.MSC, value_down = 0.5, name = _('Mission Computer Mode AUTO'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},              
    {down = misc_commands.Switch_MC_Power,                cockpit_device_id = devices.MSC, value_down = 0.0, name = _('Mission Computer Mode OFF'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},

 

I also added these 
Probe heat switch function:

{down = misc_commands.Switch_PR_HT_Mode,                cockpit_device_id = devices.FLIGHTINSTRUMENTS, value_down = 1.0,    name = _('PRB HEAT HT'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},
        {down = misc_commands.Switch_PR_HT_Mode,                cockpit_device_id = devices.FLIGHTINSTRUMENTS, value_down = 0.0,    name = _('PRB HEAT AUTO'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},

 

VRS output : 

 {down = misc_commands.Switch_VRS_Output,                cockpit_device_id = devices.NAVFLIR, value_down = 0.0,    name = _('VRS DISPLAY SELECTOR MPCD'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},
        {down = misc_commands.Switch_VRS_Output,                cockpit_device_id = devices.NAVFLIR, value_down = 1.0,    name = _('VRS DISPLAY SELECTOR HUD'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},

 

VRS mode: 

{down = misc_commands.Switch_VRS_Mode,                        cockpit_device_id = devices.NAVFLIR, value_down = 0.0,    name = _('VRS MODE SWITCH AUTO'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},
        {down = misc_commands.Switch_VRS_Mode,                        cockpit_device_id = devices.NAVFLIR, value_down = 1.0,    name = _('VRS MODE SWITCH RUN'), category = _('Miscellaneous Controls')},

 

NAV Panel:

Replaced the first 2 lines for the course selector switch with these 2 lines, now the course selector switch works without a problem. I do have the center position mapped to a keyboard command with RS MAPPER:

{down = inst_commands.Knob_Course, down = inst_commands.Knob_Course,    cockpit_device_id = devices.NAV_INS,    value_down =  -0.5, value_up = 0,       name = _('COURSE SELECTOR CCW'),                                        category = _('Navigation Control')},
        {down = inst_commands.Knob_Course, down = inst_commands.Knob_Course,    cockpit_device_id = devices.NAV_INS,    value_down =   0.5, value_up = 0,       name = _('COURSE SELECTOR CW'),                                         category = _('Navigation Control')},

-- IFF   , I added this section so that we can control the IFF switch ZERO/NORM/HOLD as you would do as part of the after landing checklist. 

-- IFF
        {down = acnip_commands.Switch_IFF_CRYPTO, up = acnip_commands.Switch_IFF_CRYPTO, cockpit_device_id = devices.ACNIP, value_down = -0.5, value_up = 0, name = _('IFF HOLD/NORM'), category = _('IFF')},
        {down = acnip_commands.Switch_IFF_CRYPTO, up = acnip_commands.Switch_IFF_CRYPTO, cockpit_device_id = devices.ACNIP, value_down = 0.5, value_up = 0, name = _('IFF ZERO/NORM'), category = _('IFF')},

 

INTERNAL LIGHTS:

Added these lines to allow the light test switch to work:

{down = int_light_commands.Switch_Compass_Light_Test,          cockpit_device_id = devices.LTINT, value_down = 0,   name = _('Compass Light/Test COMP'),        category = _('Internal Lights')},
        {down = int_light_commands.Switch_Compass_Light_Test,          cockpit_device_id = devices.LTINT, value_down = 0.5, name = _('Compass Light/Test OFF'),        category = _('Internal Lights')},
        {down = int_light_commands.Switch_Compass_Light_Test,          cockpit_device_id = devices.LTINT, value_down = 1.0,   name = _('Compass Light/Test TEST'),               category = _('Internal Lights')},

EXT LIGHTS:

I have recoded the position light switch coding with these 3 lines to have a more logical way of using this switch and removed the POS LIGHT TOGGLE coding in the original (2 lines):

{down = ext_light_commands.Switch_POS_LT,                cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 0, name = _('POS Lights OFF'), category = _('Exterior Lights')},
    {down = ext_light_commands.Switch_POS_LT,                cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 0.5, name = _('POS Lights DIM'), category = _('Exterior Lights')},
    {down = ext_light_commands.Switch_POS_LT,                cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 1.0, name = _('POS Lights BRT'), category = _('Exterior Lights')},

Added these 3 lines for the lights master switch for a more logical way of switching:

 {down = ext_light_commands.Switch_EXT_LT_NORM_NVG,                cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 0, name = _('EXT LIGHTS OFF'), category = _('Exterior Lights')},
    {down = ext_light_commands.Switch_EXT_LT_NORM_NVG,                cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 0.5, name = _('EXT Lights NVG'), category = _('Exterior Lights')},
    {down = ext_light_commands.Switch_EXT_LT_NORM_NVG,                cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, value_down = 1.0, name = _('EXT Lights NORM'), category = _('Exterior Lights')},
    
KNEEBOARD - NO CHANGE
CHEAT - NO CHANGE
DEBUG - NO CHANGE

AXIS COMMANDS:

Added these lines to enable all the light adjustment dials to be controled with a potentiometer if making a home cockpit:

{action = ext_light_commands.Knob_FORM_LT, cockpit_device_id = devices.LTEXT, name = _('Formation Lights Knob Axis')},
{action = hud_commands.DisplayBRTKnob, cockpit_device_id = devices.HUDCONTROL, name = _('HUD BRT CONTROL')},
{action = hud_commands.VideoBRTKnob, cockpit_device_id = devices.HUDCONTROL, name = _('VIDEO BRT CONTROL')},
{action = hud_commands.VideoCONTKnob, cockpit_device_id = devices.HUDCONTROL, name = _('VIDEO CONT CONTROL')},
{action = edp_commands.BRT_Knob, cockpit_device_id = devices.EDP, name = _('EDP BRT CONTROL')},
{action = int_light_commands.Knob_Instr_Lights, cockpit_device_id = devices.LTINT, name = _('INST PANEL LIGHTS BRT')},
{action = int_light_commands.Knob_Console_Lights, cockpit_device_id = devices.LTINT, name = _('CONSOLE LIGHTS BRT')},
{action = int_light_commands.Knob_Flood_Lights, cockpit_device_id = devices.LTINT, name = _('FLOOD LIGHTS BRT CONTROL')},
{action = int_light_commands.Knob_Annunciator_Lights, cockpit_device_id = devices.LTINT, name = _('WARN/CAUT ANNUNC BRT CONTROL')},
{action = rwr_commands.Knob_RWR, cockpit_device_id = devices.RWRCONTROL, name = _('RWR VOL CONTROL')},

{action = acnip_commands.Knob_AUX_VOL, cockpit_device_id = devices.INTERCOM, name = _('ICS Aux Volume Knob')},
{action = ecs_commands.Knob_TEMP, cockpit_device_id = devices.ECS, name = _('ECS TEMP CONTROL')},

Great!!

Can you do an axis control for the COMMs volumen?

Do you mean the normal COMMS 1 & 2 volume controls on the UFC or the comms volume on the RCS?

If it's the normal COMM 1 & 2 volume controls try adding these 2 lines to the joystick default.lua file in the AXIS section (right at the bottom): 

 

{action = ufc_commands.Knob_Comm1_Vol, cockpit_device_id = devices.UFCCONTROL, name = _('COMM1 VOL')},
{action = ufc_commands.Knob_Comm2_Vol, cockpit_device_id = devices.UFCCONTROL, name = _('COMM2 VOL')},

One thing I forgot to mention is that I also amended the coding in the COMMS section for the RCS panel. The original LUA has the OP MODE of the RCS coding miss-spelled with the word MODE as MOD. The numbers for the positions are also incorrect. It's coded with some arbitrary intervals but it should be 20 degree intervals to assign rotary switches. So these 6 lines should be replaced:

 

{down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MOD,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.05,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: OFF'),            category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MOD,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.15,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: TEST'),        category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MOD,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.35,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: TR+G'),        category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MOD,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.45,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: TR'),            category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MOD,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.55,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: ADF'),            category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MOD,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.65,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: CHNG PRST'),    category = _('Radios Control')},

 

REPLACE WITH THIS:

 

 

{down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MODE,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.00,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: OFF'),            category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MODE,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.20,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: TEST'),        category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MODE,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.40,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: TR+G'),        category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MODE,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.60,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: TR'),            category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MODE,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 0.80,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: ADF'),            category = _('Radios Control')},
    {down = radio_commands.Switch_OP_MODE,        cockpit_device_id = devices.RSC,    value_down = 1.00,     name = _('UHF RCU-8150 Operational Mode: CHNG PRST'),    category = _('Radios Control')},

{action = ufc_commands.Knob_Comm1_Vol, cockpit_device_id = devices.UFCCONTROL, name = _('COMM1 VOL')},
{action = ufc_commands.Knob_Comm2_Vol, cockpit_device_id = devices.UFCCONTROL, name = _('COMM2 VOL')},

Bravo, thank you

Excellent work. It’s been years since the Harrier was introduced yet I can’t believe the binding option remains poor compared to other early access products.  This should’ve been fixed ages ago.

Thanks, I have been told these bindings will be implemented with the next update after 2.7.

Massive Kudos to the OP.

 

I note alot of this functionality has been requested by the community over the last 4 years.  It's a sad state of affairs when the customer has to actually make the files themselves (which without desrespect to the OP) is pretty simple stuff but beyond the reach of people without scriting capability.

 

A module should in no way be released from EA until at the very least basic keybinds are completed, and more to the point with this module work.

 

I honestly cannot think of a justification on on why these additions where not made sooner, and by Razbam themselves.  Or equally when playing the game one of the most important keybinds such as the RWR volume is still no longer functional.

Thanks, I'll have a look at the RWR volume. I have made it an axis command (listed above) and I'll check the volume issue.

Yea the volum issue i have resolved , had to change gain volumes down to .20 and .30 depending on contact or launch - much better can still hear multiplayer comms now!

Do you have the barometic altimeter control knob working yet?

 

we really need more Clockwise / CCW keybindings.

No, I haven't.  That one and the bingo knob are my nemesis(es/ie?). I have asked Razbam for the title of the bingo knob coding but they havent had time to look that up yet.  I believe the altimeter knob is the same type of coding as the bingo knob , a "default axis cycle ". And as I understand it you have to code those as "Icommand-title-incr/decr". But without knowing the title you wont be able to code it. I could be wrong though. 

[Wisky]

yeah thats what i came up with too.

and there is literally no reason for you to know, what kind of iCommand's are still there to be used, if there is nowhere for it to be looked up.

 

i would love those iCommand Inc/Dec for a lot of stuff as i am using rotary encoders instead of Pots or Rotary switches (that would stay in the mode you set them (even after being shot down and respawning))

and that would feel awkward for me.

Hey everyone, i went through the Harrier today and think I got everything. I used what yall provided in this thread as a foundation and updated with what I saw today as of 2.7. Let me know if I missed everything. I think I got everything mappable that is clickable.
