Long time ago I started to document my HOTAS command bindings … which turned out very useful now with FS2024 as I have to rebuild the entire setup again.
In my documentation … which is here:
… you will find that:
- A) I do bind many commands to a single button
- B) Some commands are available via multiple “buttons”
- … where “button” can either be a single “button” or a combination of “buttons”.
As @TheSevenflyer pointed out the event dispatcher (usually) will do the right thing based on the present context. So if I am in “instrument view” then one button has a different result then when I am in “avatar mode” or “drone view”.
However, some input button combinations may not be detected as desired … and then one has to play around to find suitable combinations (e.g. use a dedicated “shift” button)
Back in 2020 I tried to document the view specific “contexts” …
… but did not have the time to double-check to what degree that applies to FS2024
