Rear gunner with mouse?

[JG52Uther]

Any way to set the gunner up so he can be controlled with the mouse like in original il2? All I see are key commands.

Press F10 to start using mouse the old style. You need to configure some key to open or configure for combat the turret when necessary and another key to aproach to the gun if you want to aim properly. Anyway there are some turrets that are not working as they should ( or I´m still missing something here ), stuka is one I could not move whatever I do.

Press ctrl+O

What was the default F10 key slaved to? Think I may have changed it, and un-able to take control of turret as suggested. Still having to use Shift-arrows which is useless.

Another note: Sometimes the realism selections prevent you from changing positions. I noticed when going to multiplayer, my single player configuration reset to "no crew position change". Took me a bit to figure out what changed.

Thanks for any in-sight, not sure why so much was deviated from old IL-2 that most of had years of working with, but alas change is bound to come.

Default F10 is to look around with the mouse rather than the hat switch, inside the cockpit and externaly.
As for the turrets. I can cycle around the positions using Ctrl+C, Ctrl+0 for firing position, Shift +F1 for straps, F10 to move the gun, but I cannot for the life of me fire the thing ! I was hoping for a left mouse click to do the job.

I got the mouse to work for the turrets but when I fire the guns the turret stops! Also, even when I select reverse elevation traverse it doesnt reverse it.
