Title: A couple of quirky problems
Post by: RecapAW on July 19, 2023, 11:34:34 AM
I have two issues that I can't figure out. Any suggestions would be appreciated.


GUI - I cannot get the map color for my "squadmates" to change. Squadmates currently show up as "friendly" color no matter how many times I change "squadmates".  All others appear to take changes when applied.

Views - When in the left/up view position, the back and right arrow keys do nothing when trying to adjust view. Also it's much larger resolution than rest of views.  It's as if it's zoomed in but it's not.  If i hit zoom it goes in even further.  All other view combinations work perfectly normal.

Some people have an issue like that due to "to many buttons pushes" A work around might be to map a single button to up/left view, and then adjust it by holding only that one button.

Kermit you would be surprised how much time I spent trying tof figure that out. Much appreciate sir.

Fugitive, I'll give it a shot.  I think I know what you mean. Anyway, kind of weird that only one view out of all of them would not work correctly.  Thanks!

Which aircraft?

FLS, it is the p38L. Which is pretty much all I fly. Now that you ask about the plane, it makes me wonder if it happens in others as well.  I don't know that I have tried, but will when I log in this evening.

Maybe the view is at it's limit of movement already. Every aircraft has it's own view set in the hps file.
