    Controlls issue: Button and Button+Modifiers pressing

    Did not played Cliffs for several week. Today I finally descided to get some fun, but I spotted problems even before start engine.
    I have a lot of actions set to single button and other actions to the same button with modifier. Trying to set chocks in I pressed "Ctrl+B" and found out that breaks also responded on this keys combo. But breaks should be engaged only by pressing single button "B". Same trouble with weapons. When I dropping bomb by pressing "Ctrl+Space" machine guns starts shooting, but they should shoot only when just "Space" pressed.

    To my opinion this is serious issue, because this eliminates usage of just single buttons because they are affected when keys combo pressed.

    Strongly agree
    This kinda defeats the purpose of being able to make button combo assignments.

    Just checked - not happening here. Full Wheel Brake "B" and Signal Ground Crew to Insert or Remove Chocks: "Control B" work separately just as they should.

    I'm afraid there's something on your computer. Another program interfering?

    Thank you. You a right. It was on my side... The problem was found when I tryed to setup new button for Toggling info windows. Every time I opened window where I shoud press button that I want for action, there always were "joystic-throtle-quuadrant-blabla-button7". It was strange because I never used that joystic in Cliffs but I put an eye on that device and found out that one of lever a below analog zero position. One of the features of Throttle quadrant that this joystick emulates button press when axis at lowest position. But this time it was in between analog zero and lowest possible position, so this device permanently generated button press event. So I simply pushed lever to upper position and problem gone.

    After that I checked this with other joystick and this happened too. Yeah, conditions are very rarely when this bug can be replicated, but maybe something wrong with controls code.
    So to replicate this in cockpit start simultateously pressing any unassigned button on your joystick and at the same time (with another hand) pres keys combo (Ctrl+B for example and it will engage two action: breaks and chockes toggle).

    I think in my case it was a third party button mapper that may cause the issue. Will have to try again with the tool off.
