Allow enabling and disabling joystick messages

Open patrickelectric opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Sometimes people open multiple GCS and having more than one sending joystick messages will have unexpected behaviour, cockpit should have an option to disable joystick usage.

Fixed on #1339.

#1339 disables the entire joystick pipeline, which isn't the same as just disabling the messages sent to the autopilot - i.e. it also disables Cockpit Actions and data-lake variable modifiers, which a user may still want to use when they're not directly controlling the vehicle.

To better understand, why is this in the QGC equivalency project? It this functionality available there?

Nope - QGC just supports disabling inputs from the joystick (like described in #1311, and implemented in #1339), so not relevant to this specific Issue. I've removed it from the project to reflect that :-)
