The game stopped shipping environ.ini so a new build could land on an existing folder without replacing anyone's settings. pack-dist.ps1 then went on rebuilding dist\ from nothing every time, which threw away environ.ini, bindings.txt, pilot.cfg and mfd_layout.cfg on every repack - the one place the promise did not hold, and the folder we do most of our own testing in. They are now carried across the rebuild. -Fresh wipes them too, for checking what a genuine first run does. Restored last, after the tree is rebuilt, so nothing the pack writes can land on top of them. Not restored at all under -Zip: the archive is taken from dist\, so a preserved file would otherwise travel to whoever downloads the release, and a release should always be built from a folder with none of them in it. Also fixes three paragraphs of the packaged README that have been saying the opposite of the truth since the change: that environ.ini ships, that it is the only one of the four that does, and that bindings.txt is the only one never overwritten. Those edits were made at the time with PowerShell .Replace() calls that silently matched nothing - which is exactly why the same corrections here are made with an editor that fails loudly instead. Verified by editing all four files, repacking, and reading the first line of each back out of the rebuilt folder; then again with -Fresh to confirm all four are gone.

|
|
Run start-fullscreen.bat for borderless over the whole monitor, or
|
|
start-windowed.bat to keep a title bar. No cockpit hardware needed.
|
|
If there is no sound, run oalinst.exe once.
|
|
|
|
Got a flight stick, HOTAS or rudder pedals? Run joyconfig.bat once. It
|
|
asks you to move each control, works out which axis you moved and which
|
|
way round it reads, and writes the joystick rows of bindings.txt. Xbox-
|
|
class controllers need none of that - they work out of the box.
|
|
|
|
Controls (XInput controller and/or keyboard) - EVERY input is
|
|
rebindable: edit bindings.txt beside the exe (written with the full
|
|
documented default layout on first run; delete it to restore).
|
|
|
|
Left stick / NumPad 8462 joystick (8=fwd 2=back 4=left 6=right)
|
|
LT / RT or NumPad 7,9 left / right pedal
|
|
Right stick Y throttle (holds position)
|
|
Shift / Ctrl throttle up / down
|
|

|
|

|
The cockpit scales to whatever window you give it - maximise it and it
|
|
grows, keeping its 16:9 shape (an ultrawide gets black bars rather than
|
|
a stretched cockpit).
|
|
|
|
The 3D itself renders at whatever -res says and is then stretched onto
|
|
the cockpit's viewscreen, so a mismatched -res costs sharpness. -fit
|
|
takes care of that for you: it measures the monitor, works out the
|
|
canvas the cockpit will settle on, and asks for exactly that render
|
|
size, so the picture arrives 1:1.
|
|
|
|
rpl4opt.exe -fit borderless, res chosen for you
|
|
rpl4opt.exe -fit -res 1280 720 same window, lighter render
|
|
rpl4opt.exe -windowed -res 2560 1440 pick both yourself
|
|
|
|
(-windowed-fullscreen is accepted as a long spelling of -fit.)
|
|
|
|
The full pod cockpit comes up in a single window: three green MFDs
|
|
across the top, the 3D viewscreen centered with the orange plasma glass
|
|
at its left, and the lower MFDs flanking the portrait map. The red
|
|
buttons around each MFD and the amber buttons beside the map are the
|
|
pod's real button banks: click them with the mouse, and they light up
|
|
as the game commands their lamps.
|
|
environ.ini is self-documenting: the game writes it on first run with
|
|
every option in it and a comment on each (Steam networking, keyboard
|
|
lighting, stick inversion, LAN hosting, developer keys, display scaling
|
|
and radar placement, and more).
|
|
|
|
HANDBOOK.html is the full manual - open it in a browser for the pad,
|
|
keyboard and pod-panel diagrams, the joystick setup, and what every file
|
|
in this folder is for. CONTROLS.txt is the controls half as plain text.
|
|
|
|
Four files here are yours. None of them ship - the game writes each one
|
|
the first time it needs it and then leaves it alone, so a new build
|
|
unzipped over this folder keeps everything you have set. Delete any of
|
|
them to start that part over:
|
|
|
|
environ.ini every engine option, commented in place
|
|
bindings.txt every key, pad button, axis and joystick row
|
|
pilot.cfg your callsign and loadout
|
|
mfd_layout.cfg where you dragged the windows (RP412MFDLAYOUT)
|
|
|
|
Two that catch people out: environ.ini is applied OVER the environment,
|
|
so a variable set in a shell loses to an uncommented line in the file;
|
|
and none of these four is ever overwritten once it exists, which is what
|
|
lets you keep a folder across builds. The trade is that a file carried
|
|
through several updates stops being offered new options - rpl4.log names
|
|
any it has not heard of, and deleting the file brings back the fully
|
|
documented current one.
|
|
|
|
Known prototype notes: pods race untextured (the player1-8 skins come
|
|
from the presets system, not shipped data), and text drawn on the plasma
|
|
glass may appear rotated.
