Mouse wheel as throttle ?? - Resolved.

[Poacher886]

Hi, Returning to X4 after some while away and just setting up the controls, but im confused...

I use a mouse and Joystick (one advantage to being a lefty) The joystick for flying obviously and the mouse to look about. However i always have the throttle as the mouse wheel becuse it means i can keep both hands constantly on each device.

The problem is cant set the mouse wheel as throttle anymore?? If i try to set under the 'throttle' key binding, and move the mouse wheel forward and back, it does not detect this? if i then go to the Accelerate and Decelerate key bindings, i can only put the mouse wheel (Axis X) in one or the other??

I cant for the life of me remember how its done.

In the topmost settings controls menu, is 'bidirectional throttle' toggle set to on? By the way, in my profile, analogue throttle and next target (ie mousewheel) are set as mouse Z axis and not the X axis.
