Start: Initial test with "flight tutorial" start
Problem: Joystick configuration issue
Joystick: Logitech Extreme 3D Pro
X4 does not seem to be able to detect my slider (I use it for the throttle) or the stick-twist (I use for the rudder).
I have installed and tested my joystick using jstest-gtk and the app successfully detects all of the buttons and axes on my stick. So there's no hardware issue here.
I've even tried experimenting with different, manual entries into the inputmap.xml files. In some cases, the control configuration "looks" like it should work (by showing the text "slider" in the throttle slot on the config screen or some other text), but still it does nothing in game when I try to use it. Some of the ones I used were:
<range id="INPUT_RANGE_THROTTLE" source="INPUT_SOURCE_JOYAXES" code="INPUT_JOYAXIS_Z"/>
<range id="INPUT_RANGE_THROTTLE" source="INPUT_SOURCE_JOYAXES" code="INPUT_JOYAXIS_SLIDER1"/>
<range id="INPUT_RANGE_THROTTLE" source="INPUT_SOURCE_JOYAXES" code="INPUT_JOYAXIS_RX" sdl="true"/>
