Question KillRot With Joystick

[-Apollo-]

Okey guys, i'm using the AMSO Apollo add on, just like most of you, but i want to change some key commands, more precisely i want to change the Killrot commnd that stops spacecraft by engaging appropriate attitude thrusters (i really need that), by default it's controlled by the numpad key ''5'' just like in keymap.cfg (NMKillrot = NUMPAD5), so i want to change it to joystick button 1, or the trigger, is it posible ?

P.S. sorry for my english

It isn't possible to assign buttons ingame, however if you have a profiling software for your joystick you can set it to "simulate" a certain keypress when you use a button.

You can also use software that can simulate button presses even if you don't have a profiling software. Like joy2key, XPadder, or if they're not good for you, http://www.zophar.net/joy.html

As they said, just use a joystick mapper (practically all mid-price or better come with their own nowadays, and for the rest there's the above mentioned joy2key). I've been using my trigger for killrot for ages now.

Okey, thanks, i use the joy2key, it's working, but is there a emulator that can make a command permanently, i mean that i don't have to run a program every time i want to play orbiter ?

Well, in Windows you can run programs automatically at startup...

The Saitek software starts when you plug your joystick in.

Well, I found very useful Joytokey and FlyByWire, a specific joystick add-on for Orbiter.
Eventually i have configured as following picture my joypad, and it works a breeze, especially for docking:
