Hotas/ Flight Sim Controls Support For Helos

[graceful lichen]

I want to fly with my X-56 Hotas

[worn sluice]

there isn't really a reason to use a hotas in battlebit

there's already limited support as in you can bind it and the helicopter willr espond to inputs

but really i don't see how the fine control of HOTASes and similar peripherals will really

change anything

[graceful lichen]

but i want to

[worn sluice]

unless there would also be a more "realistic" flight mode that offers you more control of the helicopter but requires more effort?

[worn sluice]

hmm

that is a good point

[graceful lichen]

there is no reason exept i have a 100 peice of plastic i wont be able to use

microsoft flight sim dont allow shooting

[dusky summit]

I mean im gonna vote yes because fuck it why not, realistically I wouldn’t be shocked if this ends up being low or nonexistent on the priority list for the game

falcon BMS and DCS

DCS is a little iffy on its future but BMS is like $5

and also has a good looking future

it is just a mod for a 1990s (or early 2000s) game but is the most realistic you can get as a regular person

also avoid Logitech for flight sim peripherals

Or at least give us sensitivity sliders for inputs, using A/D for roll is a pain since you can’t adjust how slow the roll is. With a mouse you can just turn up the sensitivity and rotate the heli quicker than keyboard.

[livid thunder]

Have you considered making mouse the roll

Ive done that

Does wonders

[worn sluice]

or maybe options to adjust the amount of input for a control based on the duration you hold a key (if you hold A key for 3 seconds it gradually ramps up the amount the helicopter turns, from a little to halfway to max)

[signal crow]

I don’t wanna go back to default controls

Then you have to aim with a keyboard

[worn sluice]

if you use mouse yaw you’re a masochist

A and D yaw gang

[signal crow]

Tf are you on?

[livid thunder]

Nuh uh im a perfectly sane individual

[worn sluice]

a chair RN

[signal crow]

You can’t aim for jack with A/D yaw haha

[worn sluice]

some of May be transport pilots

hello autocorrect I’m saying may as in might not May as in the month

[signal crow]

Yeah ok Mrs frizzle

[worn sluice]

what we really need changed is the center of pitch

it feels like it’s in the nose

[graceful lichen]

do you know how much DCS is not including addon aircraft

[graceful lichen]

yes I did

[worn sluice]

DCS itself is free

where it costs you is

• hardware to play the game
• the 52305320 modules
• a mental tax

[graceful lichen]

true

[worn sluice]

i wouldnt spend more than $100 on DCS in its current state

[graceful lichen]

mental tax lol reminds me a war thinder

[worn sluice]

a different type of mental tax, at least

[graceful lichen]

haha lol

[worn sluice]

but still i'd check out falcon BMS

[graceful lichen]

ok will do

[worn sluice]

more realistic, cheaper, and a better future

its only $5 for falcon 4.0 on steam and the mod (BMS) is free

[graceful lichen]

it looks like gta san andreas but CJ joined the airforce (in other words it look old)

[worn sluice]

the base game was m ade in 1998
