2 function for 1 axis


Recommended Posts

Good day,

 

Following is my config.

 

I have thrustmaster T-flight HOTAS and Registered FSUPIC.

I am using aerosoft A320 on My FSX-SE.

I have disabled the HOTAS controller in fsx controls and use FSUPIC for all.

The rocker in the throttle stick is assigned for Throttle3axis which performs the function of nose wheel steering.

The twist action of joystick is assign to rudder.

 

Below is my requirement.

When on ground, I want the twist action of the rudder for the differential braking ( twist left and left brakes should be applied; twist right and right brake to be applied)

When flying, the twist function to perform rudder axis.

Please advise in detail how to enable such a function.

Your assistance is highly valued.

Well, without venturing into a form of programming with a Lua plug-in (take a look at some of the samples in the ZIP in your FSUIPC documents folder to see if this is something you could do), the easiest thing to do is to assign both actions to the same axis (in FSUIPC up to four assignments can be made to axy axis).

The brakes won't do anything in the air, the rudder does very little on the ground, especially if you have a tiller (which I assume you must have -- how else do you steer when taxiing?

Just a possibility

 

I have assigned the rocker in my thrustmaster HOTASX for differential brakes. However, when i press shift and press rocker simultaneously , i want to pan around. Is is possible to achieve such an action?If so, how do i achieve it?.

 

Many thanks,

There are ways of making the actions of one button or switch dependent on another button, but there is no such option for key presses or any configuration way of mixing keypresses and buttons or switched.

You'd need to write a small plug-in script in Lua, as a plug-in, and assign the rocker buttons to it so it can test if shift is pressed and send one of two different controls accordingly.
