Major War Thunder Key Binding Issue (persisting for Years now)

[Serano]

There is a major key binding issue with this game, and nowadays with the addition of new functions and the need for multiple key binds the game become even harder to play.

Here are a couple of examples:

You set the F key to Toggle Flaps. Then you set Shift + F key to drop countermeasures. Every time you drop countermeasures, the flap also get toggled.

Example #2:

You set the Throttle axis to the Mouse Wheel. Then you set your Zoom axis to Shift + Mouse Wheel. Every time you zoom in/out, the Throttle also changes.

For decades of playing games, this is the first game I see that handles key binding like that.

Can we get more key-binding options, for example a button to Disable Axis? (and obviously also Toggle option), for those who don't want to have the key pressed)

As in example #2: in the Throttle Axis, we could set "Disable Axis" to Shift, so every time the Shift key is pressed, the Throttle axis will be disabled.

As a bonus, this addition will also open up so many possibilities for those using joysticks/gamepads/other analog input devices.

The game allows you to save the keybinds that you want. Otherwise there are the defaults.

Off topic comment that has nothing to do with the problems explained in the 1st post.

Must be a bot or an AI, and reading with comprehension is not part of your 'programming'?

I see you reply on all of the peoples' problems with the same useless comments, for example, "Update Windows, Delete and reinstall your GPU drivers."

At least this time you picked up the word "keybind" and formed your reply based on that...

There are default keybinds for a reason. If you decide to not use the defaults the configuration etc is on you to figure out. Gaijin does NOT support custom keybinds with Dev or TM time. These are issues for players to determine and solve. Is this more wordy explanation better. I thought the previous one was rather self explanatory. Work it out and save your configuration. The keybinds do indeed change from time to time. The game runs on multiple platforms and has changed over time from an air game to add, GF, Naval, Helicopters etc. Do you think this would be possible without changing the keybinds. That is why there are defaults!
