How can I use two joysticks for toggling listening?
« on: November 29, 2023, 05:53:43 PM »
I have two throttles that I use for DCS, depending on the aircraft. I added both as joysticks in VA, but it only lets me choose one activation button at a time, so when I swap sticks, I have to change the activation button in VA. Is there a way to have both sticks active in the profile at once?

The built-in "Joystick Button Recognition" option is intended for a single button (combination).

However, you can use commands to replicate that functionality.


E.G. if you want push-to-talk, you can create two commands:

One with the "When I press button" option selected, and its "Shortcut is invoked only when all buttons are released" option disabled (unchecked), containing the "Make VoiceAttack Start Listening" action

Another with the "When I press button" option selected, and its "Shortcut is invoked only when all buttons are released" option enabled (checked), containing the "Make VoiceAttack Stop Listening" action
