About this mod
I started playing some Elite again recently, and my nerdy ass thought "wouldn't it be cool to try and do everything with flight assist off and just use it as a hold-to-stabilise button". Turns out, the base game won't let you configure it that way! So I went and made a little hotkey script that lets you do that.

This thing's quite simple to use, and not quite perfect, but it works fine for what I want. That being said I don't know if it will work on any computer other than my own, so your mileage may vary etc.
INSTALLATION
USAGE
Uninstalling is as simple as deleting the exe filre. It's not a complicated mod lol.
Honestly calling this thing a mod is a stretch - it's little more than 40 lines of code, and it doesn't touch the game, it just temporarily inverts the z button when the game's client is open. I haven't programmed a single thing in about 4 years, and never once outside of a class so forgive me if it doesn't work perfectly for you lol.
INSTALLATION
- Before you are actually able to use it, you'll want to make sure your Flight Assist setting in-game is Hold, not Toggle. It also should be bound to Z. Otherwise the program won't work.
- It's an EXE file, and you'll have to run it manually during each session. Alternatively you could set it to start with windows if you absolutely couldn't be bothered to open it manually. It doesn't effect performance at all as far as I can tell.
USAGE
- The program won't show up on your task bar when you run it. That doesn't mean it isn't running, you can find it in task manager. You don't have to open task manager to close it, CTRL+SHIFT+F1 will end the program.
- Once you run it and open Elite Dangerous, press CTRL+SHIFT+Z and your Z button will be inverted - that means that when you hold Z, it will activate flight assist until you stop holding Z, allowing you to use flight assist as a stabiliser (for example if you try to land in a station manually and go spinning all over the place lol). If you decide to go back, it's not at all difficult - CTRL+SHIFT+Z is a two-way toggle. After you toggle the inversion, tap z and the game will update to the new setting if it doesn't on its own.
- The Exit hotkey works no matter what's on screen, the inversion toggle will only function when Elite is the active window.
