HiTech,

Can we map throttles to off throttles on our joysticks?

This update may actually give me a reason to try GVing more often.

I hope that there is a way to map gear positions, because sometimes it is very advantageous to just creep ahead in low gear.

Otherwise, this is going to be HUGE!!!  Way to go HTC!!!  <S>

You'll still be able to creep with the new automatic transmission.

From what HiTech said a few posts ago, it sounds like you will still be able to creep.  The transmission will select the gear appropriate for the speed you are moving, and you can go as slow as you want (more or less).

Honestly, that's rubbish and will be the end of GVing for me.

Oh the Humanity!!!  You wont be able to dominate all the noobs at GVing because everyone will be back at the same level again NO!!!!

It works exactly like cruise control on your car with an automatic transmition.

Push w to accelerate to xxx speed then let go, it stays at xxx speed, go up hill it will down shift if need to hold speed . Turn hard it will down shift, then up shift when it can. It will even creep at 2 mph.

I.E. all you must do us push w to speed up s to slow down.

^^^^

This is going to make GVing so more enjoyable.

Hitech a question. You've said that you can hold "S" to decrease speed but will there be a key for the brakes?

There are not any brakes or throttle control.

There is W go faster, and S go slower.

Brakes are applied if needed and throttle is applied if needed.

5Point no you can not map a throttle to a throttle in a tank , because there is not a throttle in the tank.

You could map buttons to accelerate and slow down thow.

I found the throttle on the stick works great for range setting on German sights.

So the FOV advantage of the M4s will be gone? No more shelling from 12 miles?

That sucks if true.  :(
