Description

Hi,

I use v1.3.41. When I open Mount mode settings in Joystick setup. I see empty list.

I have checked the code and seems like it should be loaded from file ParameterMetaData.xml, item MNT_MODE, but I can't find that item in this file. How this file is created? Seems like it's not in repo.

Research direction

Start in the Joystick setup's Mount mode settings and trace how it loads items from ParameterMetaData.xml, then investigate how that file is created and why MNT_MODE is absent. Done means the Mount mode list displays the expected items when the settings are opened.
