Key Mapping: Independent prop feathering for each engine

[ATAG_SKUD]

Since work is underway to update BoX key mapping features I think its a great time to make this request again.

 

The problem:

When you need to feather a prop you usually need to do it quickly. This is particularly important on twin engine aircraft. If you have custom controllers as many of us do we have buttons and levers assigned for each engine and don't use the "Select engine" key feature. This makes prop feathering in an emergency a complicated process of selecting the engine and then selecting prop feathering then deselecting the engine so you can now operate the throttle and pitch controls independently. By this time you might be damaged in a wild spin at low altitude trying to reach your keyboard for that dang select engine key while watching the message to be sure you have the correct one selected.

 

The fix:

Add prop feathering key mapping option for each engine independently.
