Aircraft

F-14

Control

PLT_AUTOPLT_ENGAGE

Description

Right now the only option for input on this control is to increment or decrement. It's normally a magnetically held switch, and after modifying a two pole switch to be held by a magnet, I'm only left with two pins on my toggle switch, common and the input pin. A two position switch option would be great! :)

This switch is really weird for some reason. It'll take a bit of time for me to work something up to support toggle actions for this switch, since we don't have toggle support for any other controls like this (as far as how heatblur has written the module) to my knowledge.

Hello,

I found a way around that works for me.

In the F-14.lua file, in the DCS-BIOS script, just add the following line :
defineToggleSwitch("PLT_AUTOPLT_ENGAGE", 22, 3041, 2112, "Autopilot", "Engage autopilot")

PS : Great stuff, I love it.

Given Jar72ok's post here, should I close this issue?

No need to close this issue - I'll close it once code is merged to officially support it :)
