Title: Mapping Joystick
Post by: Kini on February 05, 2025, 10:13:08 AM
Is it possible to map two commands to a button on my joystick?  Basically I'm wondering if I could edit the correct .cfg file and have two actions to a single button.

Dont know. Should be easy enough to test. Open the xxx.jsm (the controller you want to test on) file in the settings folder with notepad. Scroll down and find a button that has an obvious action tied to it then add another action ie ", gear", save it and then load up the game and test it.

If it works great!, if not remove the edit and install "Voice Attack". It does both voice commands and button pushes I believe so you should be able to get 2 or more actions to a single button throw. 10 commands are free, $10 gets you unlimited commands.

Thanks for both suggestions dude, I was wondering if a comma separator would work on combined commands. I should have tested it off line, which is where I'm heading to.

You can if the two uses are in different control modes.

If your asking something like 1 button raises flaps and raises gear. then no it is not.

Hey! Great question yes, it’s absolutely possible to map two commands to a single button on your joystick by editing the right .cfg file, depending on your setup and software.

Poor sentence structure and grammar along with a wrong answer so you fail, Mr. Roboto, you need to go back to LLM school.
