Hi all,
There are some aircraft that more or less require fast and accurate
control of subsets of the engines (e.g. the side engines on ZLT-NT). For
people without several joystick throttle axes (I have five now :) the
keyboard engine selection is vital.
It is currently only possible to select one engine or all. This update
adds the ability to select subsets of the engines.
shift + 1 (2, 3, 4) selects engine 1 (2 etc) just as before, and
shift+ctrl + 1 (2, 3, 4) selects engine 1 (2 etc) in addition to any
previously selected engine.
So to select engines 1 and 2 the user presses
shift + 1 and then shift + ctrl + 2.
Selecting both outboard engines on a 4 engine aircraft would be
shift 1 and then shift + ctrl + 4.
It might also make sense to add shift + 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ,0 to
keyboard.xml (if possible) since we have aircraft with that many (and
more!) engines around.
Cheers,
Anders
