Manual and or Controls for Babylon project
I am finally having time to spend with this remarkable project and need to ask a very basic question, are the ship controls identical to FS1 and or 2?  I saw reading the Read Me that there is a FS2 Manual in the docs and found it in the files, so I assumed the controls were identical, but wanted to check just to be sure, thanks agian for all the work on this project, amazing work. thanks.

Re: Manual and or Controls for Babylon project
Mostly but there are some new features.  Quickest way to check out what's available is just hit F2 from the command deck and select configure controls.  Granted some of those options may or may not do anything in TBP or even in specific ships.  I'm sure someone will fill in some more detailed info.

Re: Manual and or Controls for Babylon project
basically, it's glide and the side thrusters. If you've played BtrL, you know how things work.

By the way, I got a completely different keymap for BtrL and TBP in contrast to FS2 or WCS. I fly full keyboard. How about the rest of you?
