Input Repetition forced

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue: Input repetition is forced on and greyed out on every single control and I can not adjust it. This causes me to be completely unable to use my throttle with my hotas because the throttle will continue to reset to zero every time i move it to the point that i can not even get off the runway. I have been unable to play since the end of December and it is still broken. Ive troubleshooted everywhere i could and nothing has solved this issue.

It sounds like “input repetition” and an “axis” binding should not be paired together, so I can understand why it might be greyed out. I think of input repetition being valid for a digital function and button that you can press and hold, but not for an analog axis that has a fixed range of valid values based on a physical position of a control lever.

Is the “input repetition” option greyed out when you are editing a digital control input?

This sounds like a possible conflict.

Have you checked to see if you have the throttle bound to any other control?

It seems like something is set to cut throttle, so when you move the axis the cut throttle is activating and forcing it back to zero.

It sounds like something like that going on.

All of my axis have Input Repetition greyed out and they behave as they should.

input repetition is enabled and greyed out on every single keybind. I used to not be like this. I went to bed after playing, woke up and launched the game and it was like this. I didnt change any settings or keybinds nor did anything on my pc change so i have no idea.

I have checked all of my controls, the only thing that is double bound is my collective but i have tested that already by deleting the keybind and restarting the game multiple times

I hate to suggest this unless you’re absolutely 100% sure you’ve done everything else and confirm it’s not some sort of setting or binding issue that you missed… but a few users have fixed controller issues by deleting their cloud save. It does have other consequences mentioned in this thread, but if you’re that desperate, it’s something to try.

Pretty sure input repetition has always been ticked and greyed out for all axis. See this screen print from last November.

Not sure why yours would be any different. Probably a duplicate key bind as others have suggested. Have you got a toggle switch assigned to a throttle function that is currently set so only causing this issue now?

Honestly if thats the answer, id be willing to give it a shot. I play DCS all the time so rebinding controls isnt a big thing to me but the progress on career mode (the only reason i bought the game) would kill me. Ill think about it and if i do try it ill let you know if it worked.

As i stated in the original, from what i remember, the box was unchecked and not greyed out. I went to bed and woke up and tryed to play and the box is now checked and greyed out. I did not change any control binging or peripherals. I checked and rechecked my control bindings then restarted the game and checked them again. The only conflict is my collective axis being bound but i deleted it and tested it. I dont have any toggle switches that are connected to the axis nor any that control any axis input.

You say you’ve checked your bindings. Does that include putting Throttle in the search box and scanning all the results for any other bindings. Also filtering on Assigned and scrolling through the list might show an unexpected binding.

Maybe unplug your controls and just try with the keyboard to see if you get the same issue.

I’m sure the input repetition is normal for axis so the cause of your issue lies somewhere else. Just trying to help.

11

I already did all that when i checked my controls and as I stated, the only duplicate binding for my throttles was my collective axis which ive tested after deleting.

12

It won’t be something your throttle axis is bound to. It’s likely to be a command that sets the throttle to shut off or just reduces it that is assigned to a toggle button that is currently toggled.

Just to confirm it’s a bug and not your controller you should try an engine start with your controller and any other peripherals disconnected and just using keyboard and mouse.

Ive done this already, its definitely the controller thats connected and bound to the throttle axis at the time because i have an x56 hotas that i hooked up and it did the same thing.

14

If I understand right you have tried two different peripherals with the throttle assigned to an axis and you had the issue with each peripheral.

If that is correct do you also have another peripheral connected at the same time?

Do you have the same problem with just the keyboard?

If this was a bug I’d expect to see many other reports of the same issue. The control assignments in 2024 do make it difficult to track down control assignment conflicts.

15

I dont even get this game at this point. Ive been verifying game files since this started about once a week and just did it again and now it works. Not sure if its that in combination with something else or what happened but it works as it should, at least for the time being. The only thing I did before was again rebind my throttle axis and check for conflicts which there were none so who knows. Ill keep and eye on it and if nothing else is said than it may be fixed.

Moved to User Support Hub since a solution has been marked. Hope it is definitively gone :+1: .
