[Feature request] IL2 Sturmovik: Tank Battles Need Haptics

Open Enterfrize opened this issue 7 months ago • 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

While IL-2 flying is covered, the tank battles have no haptics to speak of. Maybe just a little on the road (incidental at best), and that's all. Are the tank battles missing telemetry? Is it that by sharing telemetry with the airplanes, it is difficult to differentiate the profile?

Describe the solution you'd like

The experiences that are most likely going to make a difference include road textures, engine RPMs, and if possible, some kind of reaction to the guns being fired.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I realize that differentiating the profiles between tanks and airplanes could be difficult. Maybe users could have more than one .exe or ,bat file to call on when starting their game, and the choice of the .exe / .bat file dictates which Simhub profile gets activated for IL-2. I don't know that this is a real problem to begin with; it's just an idea.

Additional context

Not applicable. On my NLR HF8, my bum feels nothing when riding a tank,

@SHWotever There is another solution that supports IL-2, but they differentiate the profile options of planes and tanks. They too have limited telemetry options, but it is helpful to be able to customize tanks and planes separately. Is it possible to have some kind of differentiator between tank and plane settings in Simhub for IL-2?
