RB2 Interface

Suggestions for improvements to the interface


Suggestion Response Status

Bring back the single mission menu system from RB1 where you can 'dogfight an ace', 'stop a bombing raid' etc Instead of having to design a mission in the editor.

For a quicky single mission of a particular type the RB1 system was excellent.

This is beyond the scope of a patch.

No fix.

Make the keypad view keys hold down keys (snap back to foward view when released) and map "corner" views to combinations of KP8/KP2 and KP4/KP6, e.g. KP4+KP8 instead of KP7, so that they can be accessed with the 8-way POV hat switch on the CH F-16 Fighterstick.

A SLIDER is needed DESPIRATELY in the "Import File" box of Paint Shop.......!! Please, by all that you deem Holy, give us a slider! I have 800 custom aircraft, and currently, I hafta go though one file AT A TIME!!!!!

- Baron von Helton

Okay, it’s on the list. No promises, but we’ll make sure it gets put in the priority queue.

When you click on fly now button, you should go to fly now preferences, then when you click on ok in fly now preferences, you should go to fly now. After debrief, you should go back to fly now preferences.

Good suggestion. Something similar is in the planning stage.

Selecting an aircraft is not too user friendly as it is. In addition to changing the scrollbar into a standard windows-like scrollbar, one should be able to select the plane by clicking its name.... not a separate "select" button.

The plane list also scrolls like it had lots of "lag"

I agree, but I’m not sure that this problem will be addressed.

Uncertain

How about user-defined keyboard and joystick mapping capability....

- HollyWoods

Add a Suggestion

We’re looking into the possibility of using a keyboard mapper developed by another team. Depending on how portable the code is, this is a possibility.

Uncertain.

Add thumbs to the scrollbars in the shell. Selecting a plane in Fly Now or Multiplayer is a pain when you have to use the up/down arrows to go through the list so it will scroll. Or at least page up/page down buttons like the waypoint list has.

- Manuel McLure

Good idea, but probably not possible for the patch.

No fix.
