Magneto switch on P-40

Post by Paughco »

The mag switch on most A2A aircraft respond to left or right mouse clicks during a mag check, but the P-40 mag switch does not. Would it be possible to add this on the next upgrade?

Thank you

COOL! Also, please check the barometer numbers in the altimeter. I was manually adjusting from something like 30.35 to 30.41, and I think I saw 30.30 when I twisted the knob through 30.40. I flew from wherever that default F-22 starts to Muskogee, Oklahoma today.

I noticed that somebody replaced all the glass on my airplane (looks way shinier than the FSX version), and she seems to be just a bit more squirrely on landing.

Thank you!

I can confirm it does read 30.30 instead of 30.40. I did stick my first landing without any problem though, felt fine to me, but I didn't own the FSX version to compare.

Seems to be, that the bug is still existing:

@Lewis: While you're fixing that navigation lights issue discussed here https://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewto ... 83&t=49736, please consider adding left/right mouse click switchability to the magneto switch. Also that glitch with the barometer readings in the altimeter.

Thank you!

Nick: Thank you! I just got done checking it out, and the mag switch is really nice. Also, no problem-o with the barometric pressure numbers on the altimeter. Great work!

Thank you
