However since my major isn't CS and I only learned a little programming by myself, so the modification is really sluggish and I don't think they are good enough to open a pull request on github. What should I do now?

Open a pull request on Github

Actually to make my version of code work I have to disable pitchYawOverrideMouseAim, making WS and QE keys unable to function, so I was wondering whether I should PR on github or not..

 

I have some idea about how to solve this, don't merge my PR and lemme do some extra coding... maybe I'll open a new PR a few days later

 

I did some changes to the code to make key control functions more like War Thunder, when pitch/yaw buttons get pressed, MAF will try to keep the plane stable, while maxing/minizing that axis (English is not my native language, so it's a little hard to express exactly what I mean...)

I have reviewed your pull request, we can continue discussing over there

I'm addicted to this mod since it came out. It works just fine in KSP 1.7.1.

However, there is no target indicator and no 'mouse circle' in KSP 1.7.3. You are able to enable MAF and the aircrafts react like they should, but there's no visual display where the mouse and nose are pointing at.

 

EDIT: My mistake. Had MAF 1.1.1 installed, MAF 1.1.2 works just fine.

Although it's a real treat to fly planes now, I noticed a little inconvenience.  If you want to switch Flight Mode (from normal to cruise for instance) the game freezes and makes a full stop. You can continue by hitting esc and resume game. This only happens the first time when switching modes.

After resuming the game MAF runs like a clockwork and you are good to go

That is so very weird, will look into that later, a recompile probably fixes it.

Found the issue, it's using ScreenMessages which was probably either moved or deprecated, should be an easy fix.

I have the same problem with 1.1.2. Fresh KSP install, no other mod. Only difference is that I've got the game installed over GOG rather than Steam now.

You download the code, set up your project references to the latest KSP install, recompile fix whatever dependency broke, throw the .dll somewhere on your GameData.

I was going to to this and update the mod but forgot.

I wish this could get an update, this is the best way for KB/M users to fly airplanes

Ported to KSP 1.9.

Have fun

Hi.

I might be doing something wrong, but whenever I activate mouse aim, my planes get extremely wobbly.

I'm on 1.8.1

Example

MAF is not compatible with other control mods. Something else is overriding the controls and the control system is going nuts.

It is probably Atmosphere Autopilot. You should not be using both at the same time, and besides, they have different goals.

Thanks.

I looked over the settings of AA and as it turns out, both mods were hotkeyed to activate with P. I changed AA do a different key. Guess what? It doesn't wobble anymore!

Thank you, you magnificent stand-up guy.

Hey tetryds,

first thanks for updating this mod, I really like and use it a lot.

Could you create an option to disable the roll with mouse control? I would like to have a mode with only yaw/pitch control and roll with keyboard input.

Yes, it's already there, you can override roll controls by using the keyboard
