Duplicate Controller Assignments

[snp227]

In an effort to prevent the loss of assignments for axes and buttons I went through my .ini file and assigned all my controllers using "Joy Letters" per the manual. Upon running P3D v5.x, the controllers are all duplicated with number assignments... I am confused?

Yes, you are confusing Joy Letters, which will now be used in FSUIPC, with the ID numbers in the Registry, which FSUIPC needs to use internally, when dealing with the Windows facilities.

FSUIPC refers to the [JoyNames] section to translate the letters into numbers and vice versa. That's why both entries are there for each controller. With Windows updates or movement of the USB connections, the ID numbers may change but FSUIPC can relate them to the letters by comparing Names and GUID values.
