Small things

Lemny

While configuring my cockpit I noticed a few very small things with priority at all, because they work. They only differ from the manual.

L:BKSQ_MixtureLeverPosition_1 & 2 are not ranging from 0-100 like the manual states, they ranging from 0 - 1 but working perfectly fine.

L:var_cowlFlapSwitch_L & R are not (0 = OPEN, 2 = CLOSE) they are (1 = OPEN, 2 = CLOSE) and 0 = NEUTRAL.

Can you explain how you're controlling this? I had assumed I could use Spad to just set mixture positions via a conventional axis assignment but it didn't work. Assigning Throttle and pitch axes worked perfectly.

Simply assign it to a custom axis with the variable as target and rescale it to 0-1. I am not near my PC atm so I can‘t take a screenshot. But custom axis should do the job. All the other axis working find with the sim defaults. The mixture is the exception, I assume because of the 0-1 range.

Thanks for that. I did sort it the other day by doing my usual "change stuff till it works" and I suspect my solution looks like yours :-)

As far as why mixture is different - I did wonder if it's because previously I've seen many 3rd party plane issues attributed to having an axis bound for mixtures. Usual issues were around engines mysteriously turning off. The fact the range is 0 - 1 must have been a BSQ choice which I find weird but whatever :-)

I am not sure if it's a choice ore a small bug, because the manual states 0-100 as range and this would work with the default MSFS mixture as well.
