[Mike Sholo]

You're welcome.

[GAD]

Thanks so much Mike. Please enjoy your sauce.

[CAREEREVIL]

i checked in the controls menu .
previous and next .
the Activate at the bottom of both them was set to a joystick button
i was using . so i set them to different joystick buttons.
but one button is all i need it will show previous and next.
and now my [ and ] keys are working to.
and all i need is one of them to .hit one time its
previous hit it again and its at next plane.
The old game works like that to for the [ and ] keys
for me .
Thanks

[Mike Sholo]

It didn't work for me either. I use the / and * keys on the numeric keypad instead ;)

[CAREEREVIL]

Thanks for putting time in to do this !
nice and fast to come here and take a look.
i cant get the [ and ] next plane and previous plane
to work . but after reading some of the Comments
i need check and see what it is set up like.
Thanks.

[Mike Sholo]

I think so, but it's still in the keymap with that text in the settings, so I've included it ;)

[VipreRX]

I believe N was removed as a requirement for Rate/Drift a few patches ago. You're either in Seek mode or automatically in Drift/Rate mode now.

[Mike Sholo]

Guide updated.

[joebarr111]

Dose anyone know how to change the sensitivity for the machine guns I can't get them to go up

[Mike Sholo]

You can go to Options and there change the Ammunition Quantity to Double ;)
