Scan for the seven primary flight controls and apply the docking computer manoeuvring code Deep dive: The key logger The docking computerContext: See this subroutine in context in the source code Variations: See code variations for this subroutine in the different versions References: This subroutine is called as follows: * TT17 calls DOKEY * DKJ1 calls via auton
Scan for the seven primary flight controls (or the equivalent on joystick), pause and configuration keys, and secondary flight controls, and update the key logger accordingly. Specifically: * If we are on keyboard configuration, clear the key logger and update it for the seven primary flight controls, and update the pitch and roll rates accordingly. * If we are on joystick configuration, clear the key logger and jump to DKJ1, which reads the joystick equivalents of the primary flight controls. Both options end up at DK4 to scan for other keys, beyond the seven primary flight controls.
