Hi, could you please write a new script with VJoy for DCS World? I would be really appreciates if you do so!
Concerning the content, it will be :
- Three axes (X,Y,Z), several buttons (or not, I will add some by myself)
- X and Y axe has two mode, absolutive and relative, and a hotkey to toggle them between each other, and a sound beep when toggle.
- Configurable axes sensitivity.
- Global suspend (Also not necessary, I could finish that), and a sound beep when script suspended.
- Axes could remember the last coordinate position before the script suspended, after resume, the axe will continue with that coordinate.
That's all !
Thanks in advanced, and sorry for my poor English.
