Gazz292 Posted December 22, 2024 Posted December 22, 2024 i'm noticing that the newest keybinds added in the december patch... i need you to trigger them twice the first time i use them to get the switch in the cab to operate, after the first trigger they will respond immediately. This is annoying for the switches that are toggle switches or rotary ones, as i have moved my 3D printed switches and nothing happened, then when i move them back it triggers the function... but now my switches are reversed. This would be a lot better if we had dedicated on and off key binds for every switch that is a toggle or rotary switch in the trains... like the original cab light switch keybind has.

SIMRAIL Team Stele Posted January 3 SIMRAIL Team Posted January 3 What key/switch behaves like that for example? I tried some added in that commit and they worked fine on my end. Their implementation also looks the same at a glance.
Gazz292 Posted January 4 Author Posted January 4 The latest keybind additions that have only one action... the ones that you trigger the keybind once to turn the toggle switch on, and trigger the same keybind to turn the toggle switch off. So in the EP08-001 with the 5 individual toggle switches for the headlights, it does this with me for the headlight and tail light switches, also the left hand cab light switch does thas, as does the high current switch... first press does nothing, second press moves the switch and it responds fine after that. it does this from my keyboard as well as my switch panels, all the old single action keybinds work from the first trigger. : It would be really nice to have all 2 position switches (toggle and rotary ones) to have a seperate keybind for on and off, like we have for the pantograph switches etc, Then in the keybind setup menu, if you set both the on and off triggers to the same key, you then get the switch changing position for each press of that single key. This is mostly of use to people using button boxes, switch panels and controllers with 2 position switches, so if the real switch is in the wrong position to the one in the sim, changing the real switch position will sync the real switch to the sim's switch position, With a single keybind for on and off, changing the real switches position moves the switch in the sim to the other position... and is still the wrong position for the real switch, if that makes sense.
Gazz292 Posted January 9 Author Posted January 9 i've reset all my keybinds, as somehow i had something stopping the fast move function moving for the power wheel and shunt levers. I've still got the need to press the 'new' keybinds twice to get them to react initially, i have noticed in the EP08-001 the headlight switches respond to the first press, the tail lights, high power and 'overall light' switches do not tho, they definitely need a double press to get them initially working.
Gazz292 Posted January 25 Author Posted January 25 Still got the issue, i've just made a video showing me pressing the keyboard keys and the switches affected not responding to the first press... after that initial press where they do not respond, they respond to every subsequent press for as long as i'm driving the train... but exit and re-load into the same or another train and it does it again. It happens with the: High Current Switch Left Cab Light / Overall Lighting Switch End Marker Lights Left and Right, Not Responding To First Press.mp4
Gazz292 Posted March 14 Author Posted March 14 Still got this issue, it also affects the new 'Train Heating' keybind we got with yesterday's patch. I'm not the only person who has this, asked on discord and someone else tested it in EU07-241 and they found the exact same thing... first press of the key for those switches does not respond, second and all other presses work fine for the rest of the trip in that train. Exit to menu and take another train, and it does the same thing again. I guess most people do not notice this, or think the sim has just not picked up on their key press, and it's easy to re-press a keyboard key to get the switch to move, But as i use 3D printed controls to drive, it means my switch will be in the on position when the one in the sim is still in the off position as a result... and it'll be the same for anyone else building a 'home cockpit' or driving controls. : Would really like to see all keybinds like the earlier ones, where there's 2 keybinds per toggle / rotary switch, i.e. one for on, and another for off. Then the ability to set the same keybind for both the on and off positions for those people who want to do that.
