How did you settle your map in flight?

[salimliu]

I found it tricky to look at the map in flight

In CLod,we have a one click map.

In Warthunder,I can see it thru my ipad.

In this game ,i have to open it repeatly and confirm it.

How did you manage to settle the map issue?

In expert mode I set the aircraft to auto level and quickly look at the map.Before take off work out the route and not when flying.

I have the chpro throttle quadrant (the one with 6 levers and 6 toggle buttons) One of the toggles is set to bring up and dismiss the map.

Go to il2missionplanner.com on your iPad. Cheerios.

I have the Left position on my hatswitch set to toggle the map.  That way I can bring it up with a swipe of the thumb as I check my bearings outside the cockpit without stopping to look at a keyboard.

great,thank you pal

Happy to help.

 

I haven't worked on it in a few months, but hope to get back to it at some point in 2017, after I get the sturmovik wiki off the ground. I want to add wind correction and polish what's already there. There's a thread in the 3rd Party apps subforum where you can report bugs or add suggestions. Enjoy!

Must have taken a lot of work.

The game obviously need a hand of 3rd party's work.They are short of manpower.

I use a button in a similar manner. Problem is occasionally bringing it up by accident when in a panic in the middle of a fight.....

 

The only thing I still cannot find the solution to is the briefing text coming up open by default when the "O" map is used. Once the text is closed, it stays closed, but you can close it during the pre-flight screen and then the first time you open it in flight the text is open again, requiring a mouse movement to get rid of it.

i dont get this...

How hard is it to press o .
Do it hundred of times per battle as my memory is terrible.

just move hand and press it.
if you are busy (in combat) you hardly need to look at the map much
