New, WishlistPublic

Description

setActualCollectiveRTD and collectiveRTD already exist. adding these commands would make a complete control command set for RTD helicopters. There is currently nothing to manipulate cyclic or foot pedal data.

Syntax could be:

helicopterRTD setActualCyclicRTD [x value, y value]
Array:
x value: Number: -1 to 1, zero is centre. -1 is full cyclic left, 1 is full cyclic right

y value: Number: -1 to 1, zero is centre. -1 is full cyclic back, 1 is full cyclic forward

helicopterRTD cyclicRTD
Return value: Array: [x value, y value]
Array:
x value: see setActualCyclicRTD x value

y value: see setActualCyclicRTD y value

helicopterRTD setActualPedalsRTD value

value: Number -1 to 1, zero is centre. -1 is full foot pedal left, 1 is full foot pedal right

helicopterRTD pedalsRTD
Return value: Number: value

value: see setActualPedalsRTD value

All syntax is based on:

I have just realized that it is possible to get cyclic input already: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/inputAction/actions

It still begs the question, why is there a collective RTD command when you can already get it through inputActions?

I am still unable to fine a method to set input controls via scripting a this time. I am still requesting this ticket stay open.
