Easier way to allocate controls

[FatzDomingo]

Thanks for the great game.
The difference between great and truly fantastic, is in the little things in my opinion.

Lets start with an easier way to allocate controls. I would provide a drag and drop tool which starts with the most common HOTAS SETS available and gradually works down the list. A graphic of the actual stick / throttle whereby you drag and drop controls onto the buttons and hats. You get to see what's left over/ still has to be allocated or is allocated to keyboard. This tool does NOT need to be part of the main program. In fact i'd even pay for it if it was a separate component.

Just a thought.

It was reorganised & branched a few updates ago but yes, it is still confusing.

I recently bought a new HOTAS setup, a separate stick & throttle, so two USB joystick devices. I'm using some axies for multiple assignments (eg throttle & yaw are for both ship & SRV control) but the deadzones are not linked, I need to match them each time. It's also impossible to tell from the in-game settings which controller the button assignment applies to, it just says 'joy1'. I'd prefer if it said 'controller 1 joy 1' or similar.

It is better than it was though, and for a game like this any solution will always be pretty complex.
