[Feature request] Simulate keyboard press when button on steeringwheel is pressed about simhub HOT 2 OPEN

Hi ! "MPS" are really rare in the controller world since they are not widely supported accross the games at my knowledge (If i'm not wrong Iracing is one of the very rare one). I will consider it for the future if somehow these kind of controls becomes less rare.

Heeey @SHWotever, first of all thank you very much for your reply!

Your answer got me thinking if we were on the same page and if was clear enough on what I meant.

After a while I figured out that what you said makes total sense and that I miss a feature on my steering wheel. The rotary encoders on my wheel are just sending a pulse of 50ms while some wheels offer a continuous pulse when changing the rotary encoder.

So what I guess is what Im truly looking for is to emulate that specific behavior. One way was described above.

An alternative solution could be that via the keyboard plugin where you can assign buttons to keyboard presses. For the button we can select "short press" or "long press" etc. For the selected key on the keyboard we cant assign "short press" or "long press".

What do you think about this alternative approach?
