I saw that the recent 1.0.6 update addressed a bug I reported regarding the reverse animation not happening when activating reverse using the joystick method that uses the HOLD THROTTLE REVERSE THRUST button.

Reverse thrust animation not working - Systems - iniBuilds Forum

It turns out the update '''solved'' this bug by creating another one. Now, when I activate the button assigned for HOLD THROTTLE REVERSE THRUST on the joystick, instead of simply making the throttles to enter reverse mode so I can control the reverse power via the throttle axis, it activates full reverse instead, and I can't control the power via axis, which is totally counterintuitive.

This is the 3rd different bug I've encountered regarding reverse in iniBuilds L1011. I hope I don't have to come back here again to report the 4th.

Small change for better clarity

I have this behaviour too.

Can I suggest setting it to TOGGLE THROTTLE REVERSE THRUST instead for this function? If its a button you intend to use while its held, set it to toggle both ON PRESS and ON RELEASE.

That basically works BUT

Owners of throttle quadrants (HC Bravo etc) probably like to have toggles for each engine and applying (reverse-) thrust with each lever separately.
Should not be a biggy, since the commands are already there ...

I have a Honeycomb Bravo, and I do prefer to be able to have independent reverse thrust settings for each lever. Unfortunately, as of yet, I haven't been able to find a way to set up a reverse thrust toggle input that works at all in SPAD.next, even for all three levers at once. The bindings that usually work with other aircraft simply don't work with the TriStar. I've had similar problems with a couple of other iniBuilds aircraft, where the thrust reversers and a few other controls only work using MSFS' built-in bindings and can't be made to work using any of the common bindings in SPAD.next. Super annoying, because I'd love to be able to make all the controls work exclusively through SPAD, but iniBuilds apparently doesn't allow that at the moment.

Personally, I preferred using Toggle Reverse instead of Hold Reverse. The problem is that Toggle Reverse doesn't work or doesn't work well on half of my aircraft add-ons, notably the PMDG aircraft, while Hold Reverse works well on all of them, except for the L1011. Therefore, I ended up opting to use Hold Reverse so I wouldn't have to use two different methods depending on whether Toggle Reverse works or not.

I think I'll start using Toggle Reverse on the aircraft that work with it and Hold Reverse on the ones that don't from now on. I'll see if I can get used to having to use two different reverse methods and not get confused because of it.

Noted.
For now, you can use independent axis for modulation of rev thrust within IDLE REV and MAX REV ranges after reverser engagement - they all toggle together from IDLE to IDLE REV and back.

In normal A-B flying, there are rarely situations that require engaging individual thrust reversers. Additionally, failure or abnormal situation simulations are not the primary focus of this product line hence why it was not a high priority during development.

You can actuate them in unison using the listed HOLD or TOGGLE commands below as of 1.0.6:

Depending on what you're doing you may need to adjust the trigger between BUTTON PRESSED, RELEASED or HELD accordingly. I use the Bravo myself and have it set to TOGGLE reverse thrust on one of the bottom detent buttons (26) on the throttle levers. This allows me to control the reverse thrust amount for each engine using independent throttle axes after having toggled it once. While they will toggle together, you can still apply asymmetric reverse thrust within IDLE REV to MAX REV range once you have independent axes assigned. The reversers are toggled back to forward IDLE thrust using the same button.

I could also set it to HOLD reverse thrust when held (bottom option), that way once I push it down into the detent, it engages max rev as long as the button remains active/held.
