X52 Hotas Throttle #5

Open Syphond78 opened 1 month ago

Syphond78 commented 1 month ago

Love this plugin. I have no way of controling strafing easily at they are limited to axis only and the two encoders i have on this throttle are both thumb operated. Is it possible to add straffing as configurable with button commands like for instance with a hat? This would give those using a hotas setup more flexability as compared to those using a Hosas.

This shouldn't be too difficult to do, it's already possible to bind buttons to axis outputs, it would just need separated axises for positive and negative output. Not sure how the UI would look though, so it might need manual editing at first.

The other thing I wanted to ask is if there is a way to make selectable profiles. I manged to get it set up to drive a rover (only problem being that the throttle is either on or off for wheels). But I have to switch strafe and roll to do it.

I did have a look at the potential of having separate outputs for wheels and thrusters, but the game simply isn't designed to handle that use case without running my own separate networking channel for movement. Multiple profiles could work, but I'll have to have a few thinks on how to implement such a thing in a reasonable manner, especially in regards to switching between them.

that would be awesome.
