How do I get the game to use my HOTAS?
I have a Saitek x-52. It's hooked up, but the game's not recognizing it. It's set to keyboard and mouse. Maybe a dumb question, but I don't see where to switch it to HOTAS controls, Thanks

@Sybreed_5 That's the frustrating thing in my case... Steam even sees the throttle and stick just fine! They show up in big picture settings correctly and everything (as well as working with fs2020 and elite dangerous) - it's only squadrons that doesn't work
Was disappointed to see they focused their efforts on fixing VR instead of game breaking stuff like this. Looks like folks will be waiting a week to use their peripherals. Wonder how many will quit/refund...
Most fun time to learn a game is week 1 along with everyone. That's ruined now.
I would ask for a refund but I am at the tail end of my EA pro subscription or whatever on Origin. If this game doesnt work with my HOTAS, then I have no reason to keep that subscription. Easy decision.
FIX THIS-do we know if they are at least looking at this?
I too am having similar issues. Playing through Origin, using Thrustmaster 4 where is all connected to 1 USB cable, and the throttle doesnt work, but the joystick does. I have tried every combination of settings in the Thrustmaster utility etc. I have rebooted the game after each change.
Verified drivers are most current on stick and software.
Checked that it works in MS Flight Sim/DCS just fine
Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS 4 (only has 1 USB cord to connect/disconnect)
THROTTLE --> NOT working (but buttons on throttle do? wtf)
STICK---------->Wokring
