Title: Thrusters and Glide
Post by: FUBAR-BDHR on October 29, 2007, 10:15:23 pm
Can't seem to get them to work.  Are they supposed to work in the first missions or do you get those functions later on in the game?  Alt-G does nothing and shift 1,3,+,enter also do nothing.

Gliding only works with the Aurora Starfury but most ships have the side thrusters. You fly the MKI in Earth-Minbari War, that one for example cannot glide. But thrusters should work properly :confused: :confused: :confused:

Please check your settings for the controls.

I'll add glide to the other Star Furies if I get the chance. I've emailed Hip63 about it. Thrusters should work. I remember doing the work on those. Took ages. Just look up the controls.

Well the only changes I made to the default controls was to bind the thrusters to the hat switch on my joystick and change button 3 to CM and 4 to afterburner.    I've tried using thrusters with both the hat switch and from the keyboard.  I've tried it with the ship standing still and with it moving.  Nothing.  I did unbind all hat switch conflicts.  I'll try creating a new pilot and using the default config tonight.

OK created a new pilot and that worked so I switched back to the original pilot and now that is working too.  Probably this $@$@# wireless joystick messing something up.   

BTW:  Game looks great.
