Mission Planner Joystick - How to "enable" by default on app startup

Hi, ive read a few posts on this, and tried modding a few config files to no avail. Anyone manage to get mission planner to start with the joystick enabled ?

Im using Steamdeck with Windows, steam deck tools (supports the joystick in X360 mode) and mission planner. Its all working, except for needing to click around the setup screens to start the joystick every time.

Thanks in advance.

Command line args, search here in the forum it was answered many times….

Thanks - Andras, your answer made the difference i found the following worked

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Mission Planner\MissionPlanner.exe” /joy “Controller (XBOX 360 For Windows)” /type rover

and modifying the Windows 11 shortcut to include the new switch requires a bit of windows weirdness as .bat files cant be added to the taskbar (play around with cmd.exe /c missionplanner.exe blah blah… and pin that. Cheers
