Description

With the Marksman DLC there were entries in the profile file, to setup keys for Guns, Rockets, Missiles and Bombs for aircrafts.

I just link to this well known video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ECG0nWXwOE

keySwitchGuns[]={};
keySwitchRockets[]={};
keySwitchMissiles[]={};
keySwitchBombs[]={};

Those entries were now removed in 1.50 and cannot be assigned anymore.

Why were they deleted? If you change something in that matter, you should let us setup those keys in the control settings... not remove them.

Would it be possible to have them included in the next hotfix/patch? Preferably as a setting in the controls, if possible.

Thank you very much

Best regards
Mag

I second that. That this was not included in the release version in the first place was bad enough. Please add configurable keybinds for weapons in vehicles to the control settings. And letting us know when this will happen would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

Any updates this thrown out feature?

There was an answer to this bugreport on discord.
(I just typed this off my phone. So please excuse any mistakes :P)

Adam: The controls that appear in Profile files and not in official controls menu (The one in game) are not officially supported. That said the switching weapons using keys is one of the systems we are currently working on and planning on releaseing with the EDEN Update.

SwissMag: Thanks adam. But the weapon selection worked flawlessly, why was it removed again?

Adam: Because it sneaked out accidently. The System is still being refined and improved :)

SwissMag: Could it accidently sneak back in until the refined version comes back?

Adam: I don't think so.

One addition. A good system would be that .you could define a primary and secundary wepoan and 2 keybindings. So you can use rockets and cannon at once on the wipeout. Or cannon and mg at one in the tank

NOISE....

I dont mean switching i mean using simultaniously

Agreed. Aircrafts like the A10 have a Weapon Release Button to fire the Rockets, Missles or drop the bomb. Would be nice to have the same ability.

Mando's Missile Suit from A2 had exactly this system and ot was great.

Any news about this, BIS?
