Is it possible to disable automatic S Foils extension/retraction? I want to be able to add another element of 'realism' to piloting. Thanks in advance for the reply.

Also reverse propulsion would be cool too.

I think I've already proposed this to Jeremy in his Sfoil hook before. I don't think there was anything keeping him from doing it, I'm thinking he either forgot, didn't understand how I asked, or hasn't gotten to it yet.

Partially at that stage now. At least with Landing Gear.
It's the Sfoils Hook. Edit Hook_Sfoils.cfg.
I have this so I have to close my S-foils before landing and my gear open.

Code: Select all

; CloseSFoilsAndOpenLangingGearsBeforeEnterHangar = 0 or 1
; When set to 0, normal behavior
; When set to 1, s-foils must be closed and landing gears opened before enter hangar
CloseSFoilsAndOpenLangingGearsBeforeEnterHangar = 1

; CloseLangingGearsBeforeEnterHyperspace = 0 or 1
; When set to 0, normal behavior
; When set to 1, landing gears must be closed before enter hyperspace
CloseLangingGearsBeforeEnterHyperspace = 0
If you set CloseLangingGearsBeforeEnterHyperspace = 1 then you must have landing gear closed but not the S-foils

Does this work if you haven't edited Xwing.ini, Awing.ini and Ywing.ini to have the landing gear tied to CTRL+L rather than s-foils?

No you do have to edit the INI files for ships. There is info here:
