DM Autopilot and FSUIPC

Morning All,

I've finally settled on a joystick and throttle that I'm going to stick with (see what I did there?! :lol: ) and as such have been programming aircraft specific buttons and switches.

I've mainly been mapping out autopilot and flying controls. I don't mind mouse clicking to switch lights and fuel pumps etc, but things like heading bugs, autopilot mode switches and pitch adjusters are nicer if done by switches.

So, I've tried mouse-macro-ing the autopilot in the 1-11 (and the Capt Sim 737 for that matter but let's not even go there :wall: ) but it doesn't recognise what's happening when I click.

Is there a list of what commands are sent by the use of the autopilot (I know they're accurate and hence don't use the default FS commands) or does anyone know the best way to assign buttons?

I'm thinking of mainly HDG and Course adjustment, the pitch and turn wheels and Alt Acq and Alt Hold?

Thanks, as always,

Paul :thumbsup:
