[1.0.2] RKE On-screen Joystick (and Fine Keyboard Controls) v1.2.1 - May 11

[Hyomoto]

Hah! I usually play WITH a joystick, but sometimes I travel and don't have it with me. I'll give it a try, I pretty much just fly with trim but this seems like a much better solution! Actually, scratch that, is there any way you might also consider a way to set trim more easily? Being able to quickly adjust it would be really helpful when I do have a joystick available.

You can set trim by using ALT. Either by holding ALT when clicking in the RKE Joystick window, or by holding ALT when in HUD mode. Let me know if that doesn't work the way you would want, or if you have any other feedback

It's nowhere near as natural as flying with a joystick but it gives that extra control I want that flying with the trim doesn't provide and for the record, the trim setting is EXACTLY what I wanted, it's awesome you can simply tap ALT while holding the stick to set trim. Fantastic implementation. I also really like how the stick holds to the center lines just enough to keep you from wobbling. Not as good as an actual joystick but much more enjoyable than the keyboard! The only thing I saw that might use a bit of adjustment is I think the UI could use some transparency. I sort of want to place it on top of the nav ball or just below the craft, it has a more accurate feel that way, and it would be nice if it didn't fully obscure whatever is behind it.

Oh, that's a good idea. I'll add it to my TODO.

Hello! Is there any way to invert Y-axis?

Nope. I'll add it to my TODO.

Nope. I'll add it to my TODO.

Thx! This will be super handy!

[curiousepic]

Loving this mod. Any plans for axis-specific limiting, or hotkeys for increasing/decreasing limits?

[sober667]

Maby add option to swich control of camera to WSAD and control of "joystick" fully to mouse?

i love FAR so it will be avesomness flying with that

[TheTom]

Any reason CKAN does not allow installation of that? It shows it but does not allow to select it.... rules this mod out for me

[Noio]

Oh. My. Gawd.

I have avoided space planes for years because of control issues. This mod has completely changed my relationship with wingy things. I want to buy you a beer.

[Moonk]

great mod

[baldamundo]

Is there a way of locking the joystick in place?

[ZobrAA]

@baldamundo

Yes, you can trim it (Alt+LClick).

[guitarxe]

Does this work with 1.0.5? It doesn't show up in the list of mods on CKAN, just wondering if I need to install it manually?

[FreeThinker]

Have any attempts been made to convert this essential mod to KP 1.1 yet?

[Esulin]

Was really bummed to find that this mod wasn't updated for 1.1+. I specifically had this mod in mind for this install of KSP.

+1 for 1.1 support.

[patrioticparadox]

Yeah, I'd love to see 1.1(.2 now) support for this. It's extremely useful when using a keyboard in the early stages of career mode (i.e little to no automated control or assist).

[baldamundo]

Really miss this mod
