Uses new property /sim/controls/brake-cancels-parking-brake.
Default is true; it is expected that some aircraft (e.g. p51d) will set this to
false so they can implement their own brake/parking-brake interaction.
Should address bug 2589.
Fix the created binding for toggle buttons.
Add autopilotDisconnect helper to controls.nas, and expose the new
function in the joystick configurator dialog.
Fixes from Henning Stahlke
Use (!passive) instead of (passive == 0), so that passive == nil is treated as
0.
E.g. this allows keyboard control of autopilot target speed, heading and
altitude in harrier-gr3.
Only the selected channel will now be used for PTT; however the bindings still selected the appropriate channel prior to setting PTT.
This provides a compatible solution that can also easily be bound to the (joystick) controls.
PTT now in
/controls/radios/comm-ptt as an int; non zero indicates which comm radio to use
/comm-radio-selected is the default comm channel to use. This should usually be the same as will be set by PTT into /controls/radios/comm-ptt
NOTE: that PTT will switch the FG comm inbound and outbound frequency to whichever radio was PTT'd.
Trigger sets /controls/armament/trigger - typically for a gun, but can be used (model side) to launch anything
Pick sets /controls/armament/pickle - typically to release something (e.g. missiles), but could be bound model side to act as a trigger.
- added extra bindings
- reworked the view axis (usually bound to the hat); to move at a better rate.
- trim to elevator position. When selected this will remember the current position and when the joystick is centered it will apply this as the trim. Very useful for carrier approaches; and also it helps to do something that is much easier with loaded controls when you can feel the pressure being reduced by the operations of the trim switch
- Engines control now use the same axis methods as the flight controls; which allows for these to have an inverted checkbox.
- Change the axis combo boxes to instead show a popup dialog (much like the button config). This is better because the items can be grouped sensibly.
- Changed the way that the "all engines" controls work - the dialog binds these to a "engines/XXXX-all" for which there is a listener in controls.nas which propogates over all engines.
- Added extra bindings to both the buttons and the axis dialogs.
- moved the "None" button to the bottom and renamed it to the more comprehensible "Remove assignment"
Replace the temporary UI with real solutions, in the view dialog
(for tooltips/popups) and a new 'input config' dialog accessed via
the file menu.
Make the mouse-cycle popup explicitly optional since some people
strongly dislike it.
Drive off the 'show view names' checkbox in the view dialog for now, this might
evolve into a generic 'on-screen hints' control to avoid an explosion of
GUI checkboxes.
Also add a GUI checkbox (oh the irony...) to disable mouse flight-controls, to
keep AndersG and Emilian happy.
This is temporary (hopefully!), to allow experimentation with different UX options in the near future. Right now it basically does nothing. As part of this, factor mouse-mode cycling into a separate command, and add some feedback. Feedback mechanism needs work, currently abusing the copilot facility.
Throttle/aileron/elevator keyboard bindings did not work on aircraft
without autopilots (= without A/P properties). Rearrange logic to make
basic axis/throttle control the default (i.e. when prop values are "nil").
Need to clear the engine list before appending a new set of engines.
Engine list was growing on every FDM reset, causing weird control effects
after (multiple) sim resets.
are set in controls.nas since ages)
controls.nas: avoid repeated querying of /sim/input/selected/engine[*]
properties; this isn't supposed to change at runtime and is a rather
costly process, especially in axis handlers
- Page up/down changes the selected throttles one step up/down, i.e.
if the original throttle settings were x steps apart they remain
steps apart (unless the boundary is reached).
- Mouse + MMB drag changes the selected throttles by the delta amount
(length of drag).
- The throttleAxis() wrapper for joysticks sets the selected
throttles to correspond to the joystick's axis position. I.e. all
selected engines will get the same throttle setting. Since most
joystick throttles are positional devices I think this behaviour
is more logical than using a relative adjustment in this case. """
mf: slightly modified, added var etc. (more such changes in controls.nas
to come)
- move "fire starter" from SPACE-key to s-key
- move "open property browser" from Shift-SPACE to Shift-Enter (Shift-Return)
- implement PTT on SPACE/Shift-SPACE (with the other six SPACE/modifier
combinations unused, apart from a popup)
- add controls.ptt(v) wrapper function (v can be 1 or 2 for on, and 0 for off)
Easter-Egg:
- pressing the t-key for at least one second resets the warp delta.
This is an experimental feature that most people won't notice. It's meant
for investigating if suchlike "unorthodox" key use is acceptable. While
modifier-keys are the norm on computer keyboards, modifier-times aren't,
although we are used to them from other devices, such as alarm clocks etc.)
May later get removed without warning.
