[Feature Request] Axis for All Rotary Knobs
-
BMS still rocks!!
Given the many new Viper cockpit panels on the market, what are the current and future plans, if any, to make all rotary knobs assignable to an axis versus being only mappable to keybinds, e.g., lighting, etc.?
Thanks in advance.

dbAside from the following axes which are already available for mapping, what other functions specifically have you identified which should be available for axis mapping but are not currently present on these pages?

@SemlerPDX Howdy! Thanks for the reply. Lighting…Primary and Flood.

@dawgboy This is a non-answer but I will say it’s an area of the code we’ll surely need to revisit and expand, at some point in the future… mainly because F-15 (and factoring for other jets). The 30 axes that we have defined are a little too tightly coupled to F-16 knobs and dials… and we haven’t yet built the ability to assign different jets to different axes/devices.
But, don’t expect any big changes or additions to AxisMapping.dat et al in the next 3-4 “falcon months”.
Meantime, if you have physical analog knobs for these things, you’ll probably need to use vJoy or UCR etc to generate button-signals for defined ranges of the knob.

@airtex2019 Thanks!! Roger the F-15C…going through that now. That was a logical follow-on question for me. Appreciate the insight you’ve provided.

So… it’s confirmed for 4.39?

Oi, join the queue matey, I want an axis for the Harrier’s nozzle controls before you get your wish, been waiting 9 years and counting! lol.

Well, I will acknowledge that as a higher priority, for sure!!
