How keep ignition switch in Start position

[hangar_101]

I use both L:BKSQ_IgnitionPosition_1 (left switch) and L:BKSQ_IgnitionPosition_2 (right switch) to control the switch positions. But I cannot manage to keep the switches in the START position till engine start.
Is there another event I can use to control it?

You either need to configure your controller to send the command continuously when the button/switch is held, or I believe others discovered that setting the L:Var above 4 has the effect of holding the switch. If it doesn't, I might be able to implement this in the future. I haven't looked into it. Also, the default bindings for magneto and starter controls should work, so using the native "starter held" command should also work.

I bound it in spad with button held at 4 with end processing set off - can't remember the parameters I set but am about to fire it up so I'll add my config here shortly.

@Black-Square thank you!

I managed to get it working by setting the L:Var above 4 together with the switch held status.

Just for information the "starter held" did not work, neither the default bindings for magneto and starters.

For those looking for details below follows the solution implemented via Spad.Next for the Left Engine Switch

Engine Switch UP

Engine Switch DOWN

I wasn't able to hold the starters to on until the engines started, in the piston duke today. I use the left mouse button. A couple of other guys in the group had the same problem.
