I don't think you've quite grasped the multipage virtual layouts.

I'd rather use the joystick the way it is intended as the layout I want to use won't work as some of the buttons will conflict with each other if there is no way to switch between the different modes.Īs you will. Alternatively, if I set SW1 to be my landing gear but also to be the activate button for selecting something in a menu then it is fine as the landing gear will be activated normally but if I am looking at one of the panels on the left or right of the cockpit then SW1 will only function as the activate button. For example, if I set SW1 to be my landing gear but also my ship lights then I can only ever use both at the same time. Originally posted by LostManAbroad:Yeah but it requires a lot of thought first to make sure that you don't assign buttons that can be used in the same situation. C for analyze/combat mode, N for Night vision. My keys for my keyboard are mapped as such. If you don't like any of these positions, change them!

That leaves you with about 20 more keys you can map anyway you want, bud. Toggles are for Landing Gear/Cargo Scoop/Fuel Scoop, bottom switch toggles my modules/weapons/sensors, the little blue button is my boost. In case you were curious, my panels are on my flat head joystick (the grey one on the stick), targetting on the top black Joystick (the one that looks like a mushroom) and the one that looks like a joypad is keyed to my systems positions (for systems, engines, or weapons allocation). Why did I bind those functions to my pinky and thumb? So that I can use them in quick escape situations because they were originally using one of the metal toggle switches on my throttle but those were better used for other functions+I like just having all my control except for my throttle, in one hand.Īlso: my hardpoints are re-assigned to the little switch under your stick trigger (default: auto flight system.because you'll never hit that button for this purpose) You can't bind to that key OR the blue switch just under your turning knobs on your throttle. S1 is a mode switch so you can swap between 'Profiles' btw, in case you have a different set up you like to use for different ships. I personally have my supercruise on the default 'hardpoints' button for easy pinky reach and my hyper drive is set to the little black joystick (the weak feeling one) that sits right next to your trigger on the left side of your joy stick.
