    Does a keybind exist for the Vectron's AFB confirm button? Or are we forced to use the mouse to press it?

    please don't click Ctrl+A/D by accident

    Pretty sure it's Shift + R/F by default, as R/F are the cruise control keys.

    oh right my bad that was for train length (with crtl, too) it's just R too actually, F won't do anything

    Can anyone please tell me what are the actions bound by default to CTRL+R and SHIFT+R? I have it heavily customized so I cannot really reset to defaults without reentering everything, and I tried all of the 4 "cruise control" binds that are available, but none of those confirm the AFB speed on Vectron.

    Sorry, I don't get what you're trying to say...I would like to know what are the default keybinds for CTRL+R/SHIFT+R assigned to, what is the name of the actions... I deleted the default assignments so I do not have these bound to anything now.
    There are 4 cruise control actions in keyboard commands mapping, and none of them work for AFB confirm on Vectron, so it is probably some other action, not with "cruise control" in the name, but I can't figure out its name.

    edit: nevermind, I realized now that these keybinds seem to be hardcoded and not bound to a specific action in keyboard mapping, so I understand now. Thanks.

    Today (11 april 2024) Dovetail lauched new update for TSW4 nad SHIFT+R no longer working for AFB confirmation in Vectron.
    Can someone tell me what combination is working now instead of previous SHiFT+R? Clicking with mouse is not an option.

    Yeah they broke it unfortunately. I did a night service with the Vectron and had to constantly turn on the cab light because I couldn't find the confirm button in the dark....

    Maybe DTG did this to create some parity between all platforms as consoles didn't have a keybind for the Confirm AFB speed ;)

    And imagine that on PS5 dualsense you have no keybind to do that… even they are some free mapping options to do that AFB comfirmation. :mad::(

    Still no key-bind for consoles though.... DTG Matt weren't you looking in to binding this function to Operation Shift+D-pad up? What's the status on that?

    Anyone experiencing problems with these keybinds on TSW5? Shift-R no longer seem to work for me on the Railpool BR193.
