Navigation Source Control Binding

    In previous versions of the Osprey prior to the 1.2 release, the control binding TOGGLE GPS DRIVES NAV1 was supported to switch between GPS and VOR/ILS navigation sources. This allowed me to bind a button on my home cockpit flight controls to allow me to switch modes easily without taking my hands off the flight controls.

    The recent 1.2 release added for TACAN support, but the control options TOGGLE GPS DRIVES NAV1 and TOGGLE TACAN DRIVES GPS are no longer supported. This has also removed support for using the OBS button on the GTN750 to toggle navigation sources. It appears the only way to change navigation sources is to click the buttons in the virtual cockpit.

    It's a relatively small inconvenience, but supporting the standard control options to allow keyboard or joystick binding this function would be preferable.

          I just tested the new update and there still seems to be a problem. TOGGLE TACAN DRIVES GPS is now working, but TOGGLE GPS DRIVES NAV1 is not. The TOGGLE GPS DRIVES NAV1 should toggled between WYPT cap and VOR/ILS CAP, but it does nothing. It will activate WYPT capture, but it won't activate VOR/ILS. The only way to activate VOR/ILS capture is to press the button in the cockpit.

          Can you please provide the keybinds you are using so I can set this up correctly?

          1. Taking a look. This may require a hotfix to the WASM file.

          2. Progress
