No weapon firing control #71

Open DCS-Pilot22 opened 2 years ago

DCS-Pilot22 commented 2 years ago

I have been scouring the controls for both AA and AG variants and maybe its in an acronym I'm not seeing, but I cant find any kind of control to fire a weapon. I have weapons jettison and weapon change but no firing

Had the same problem until I watched this video and realized there's a master safety switch called MASS that has to be turned to "Live".

You can of course bind this to your keyboard. And don't forget that, in order to shoot, you have to bind and depress the Trigger Safe.

Devs, you should probably put this into your FAQ at least. Because unless one is familiar with this system, it's easy to think there's a bug (I spent 20 minutes today trying to troubleshoot this, including removing Mods, reading Logs, and restarting DCS). It did occur to me there was maybe a master arming mechanism, but when I saw the binding called MASS Live, MASS Standby and MASS Safe, I didn't make that connection. (I thought it's some advanced system I don't need to deal with yet.) It didn't help that the keybinding is in "Systems", not "Weapons", which reinforced the idea that this has nothing to do with shooting.

Great mod, devs!
