Gladiator NXT Programming questions
Posted: Sat Sep 12, 2020 6:56
Hi,
Couple of days ago I've finally received my Gladiator NXT and very happy with almost everything. It is super precise, great ergonomics and quality! Before that I had CH Fighterstick and I didn't like the mechanical part and lack of buttons. But the ability to program it was amazing.
With NXT I'm still trying to wrap my head around the software and am having certain issues with En1 and En2 wheels on the controller. They are mapped as encoders and what I wanted to do is to bind flaps to "En1" in IL-2 sturmovik. Idea is simple: while the wheel spinning one direction key/button should remain pressed. Spinning in other direction - other button remain pressed. Button is "released" only after let's say 200ms w/o an event from the wheel.
Unfortunately it seem like this is not possible to do with existing software. It only allows to generate short key strokes controlled by T_Enc global value. Which causes flaps extend extremely slowly... I tried using Generator but it doesn't work well for this. Also because I wanted to use the same wheel as a trimmer with SHIFT the Generator wouldn't work anyway.
Would it be possible to add a new type of encoder to simulate this scenario?
