Default

Thanks Angus. I'm having some problems and I think it might have been caused
by my changing some of the key functions to other keys that the defaults. I
have an add on Tornado for example, that goes through an automatic start
when a specific cockpit switch is clicked. I would assume it's tied to the
(E) key in some way, but it also brings avionics and generators on line
during the sequence. If I had for example, changed the avionics on/off to
another key, I'm thinking this might foul up the sequence and cause some
issues with avionics.
Just a wild guess here, but I'm trying to learn how these things are
actually done. Come to think of it, I've never seen a warning of any kind
concerning changing key assignments from default settings...so I might be
way off with this theory :-))

Yes, they regularly do, by use of guages. For example, install PM2's
(excellent by the way) Concorde, and you'll find a 'Concorde nose Up'

entry.
Hope that helps!

I've noticed that in the assignments section for the key assignments,

after
I install add on aircraft, I'm seeing entries there that don't show up

as
default assignments for the simulator. For example, I have an avionics
on/off, a master battery on/off, and a master battery and gen on/off

listed.
Here's my question.
When you install an add on from say Lago, FSD, or Captain Sim into

FS2K2,
does their installation change or add assignments to the sim? I am

having
some issues that I think might be related to my having changed some of

these
assignments from whatever the default assignment was. For example, I

changed
avionics to simply an (A). Should you...if you are using add on aircraft

in
FS2K2, leave the default key assignments alone and simply use whatever

is
showing, and can changing an assignment in the sim cause issues and
conflicts?
I'm thinking that to resolve my "issues", I might have to restore to the
default key assignments in the sim, then reinstall ALL my add on

aircraft,
letting the installation assign or add assignments as they go into the

sim.
Am I on the right track here?
Many thanks,
Dudley
