How to disable joystick input?

Hey!

Just found this sim, wanting to try it out. But it registers an accelerometer in my PC, rendering me unable to control the vessels with my mouse.

Can I disable joystick-use completely?


Cheers!

Can you try changing the joystick number (joystick_no_port, joystick_no_stbd and joystick_no_rudder) to a non existent value, e.g. 10, using the settings editor. I think that should disable the input. If not, let me know and I can implement a setting to explicitly disable it.

Hello and thank you for your rapid response!

The workaround did indeed work. :-) It'd be a bit more intuitive with an explicit toggle, though.

The sim is looking great - I'm looking much forward to try it out multiplayer with a friend of mine soon.

Would you recommend playing this sim without a joystick, Ragerin?

@ToryLed, sorry for my late response.

I find it plays fine without a joystick.
