I loved today update, so many axis, so many functions, thank you Mr Oleg and team!
You mean like making your own gear lever? You are right, that's a good question and i totally missed this when i was asking about such things just one post above yours. Supposing a two-way switch gives a continuous signal, then it would need different interpretation or handling by the game engine.

An instantaneous switch would just send the command "gear up", but having a two-way switch that stays in place would trasmit "gear up...gear up...gear up..." all the time
Although, i think that you can get around this limitation by using certain kinds of circuit design for your custom controller. I'm not sure but i vaguely remember seeing some diagramms on leo bodnar's website about making his controllers work that way.

Still, very good observation there.
