good video, the MFD and power management now makes sense and it doesn't feel overwhelming anymore. Thank you

[@Irritated_Considerably]

Thank you Foxy. These videos are giving me the head start with grasping the considerations I need to make with my key-bindings going forward. I'm really looking forward to Engineering coming in (and complicating things further) as I have some ideas about simplifying things with Presets for day to day flying, reducing the need for fine-tuning the allocation settings on the fly with these key-bindings. My old brain is struggling! Thanks again 😁👍

[@davidebenatti7000]

You deserved my sub, this allow people to save hours to understand what these new options allows to do. Moving on the new options introduced with 24.2, it's clear that if you want such kind of control you need to play with m&k OR with very high end Joy devices with a high number of keys mappable. And even in this case, i think something must be left unmapped due to the lack of phisical keys on the Joy

[@Bronwyn031]

Wanna add, the Fire Groups was always there if I remember correctly. However, since you're using a HOTAS, you should map "Switch to Fire Group #" key bind to the same button that fires the group so your MFD will automatically switch to that group to show you your ammo count and cool downs. If you do not, you will have to constantly keep manually switching your MFDs to that fire group to see the ammo counts.

[@grahamw7657]

Thanks for your excellent video, great effort!

[@eavdmeer]

Even with a hotas, the speed limiter is still very useful. Without it, your throttle will control the full range of 0-1000 m/s. That makes it super hard to make small adjustments at low speed

[@thierrybo6304]

For this purpose I set the sensitivity curve to MAX "3", then you have to make larger movements with your joystick to move at low speed. This is not perfect but at least I can land and take off without bumping the ship.

[@cyvan1750]

Re the weapon groups. I've noticed that , by default , WG1 has all the weapons assigned, then WG2 and 3 have them separated by type. So to get similar behaviour to how it is in live , I have assigned my primary trigger fire to WG2 and secondary to WG3. My joystick has a 2 stage trigger , so I have the 2nd stage of the trigger fire WG1 which fires all the guns.

[@thierrybo6304]

Yes, mine does not have a dual trigger, and I need 3 groups : Fire All, Fire Group 1 and Fire Group 2. I ended with 2 buttons for "Next Group" and "Previous Group" ans a single trigger. Too bad they did not add a 'Cycle Button', this would have not wasted one button.

[@aithemed]

1:54 all thats settings with long words, are the ones you can change directly on the MDF config of your ship

[@CalamityStarForce]

I ended up using the numpad for selecting MFDs. There's some keybinds there already, but nothing too important to move somewhere else. I use +/- to cycle the page on the currently selected MFD. That really minimized my time holding F to mouse around.

[@Starbuck.Laniakea]

I suggest space break engages boost to NO ... and simply use your boost key while pressing space break to conserve fuel and ... dunno ... I prefer this method personally. Might rethink that depending on how many new keybinds there are ... but using Voice Attack - allows me more useful binds ... like shift AND control to enable a new row of keys. Food for thought

[@q3aryoko]

OMG, this is crazy. I have a hard enough time dealing with MFDs now. I dont even bother with them most times. All this stuff is even crazier. It is quite disconcerting for a casual SC gamer like me.

[@Solar546]

It's actually very convenient, for example you could keep the left MFD on Ship Status and change only the right one using the hotkeys. It's much faster than now.

[@xAedricwolfx]

Its almost like to remember all this and implement it a Co-Pilot would be the better way to go.

[@eavdmeer]

That solution for the weapon groups is a crutch at best. The ED system where you just choose a trigger number is miles better

[@DevilbyMoonlight]

I am dreading this... every time they change the binds it takes hours squinting at the screen to sort them out as there is always bind conflicts for me, as I have to change so many of the keys for me saving the binds file is no longer an option as it causes issues every patch this year some binds will refuse to work properly because I have to switch most of the default keys around, and remove the unused ones, there needs to be a default keyboard layout for left handers! - I never had this issue in Elite Dangerous, also the joystick works if I plug it in after the game starts too unlike SC which doesnt see it unless its plugged in before the game starts. For example: just try swapping the fire and aim buttons on the mouse and see what happens the next time you restart your pc and start the game... however it will work fine until the reboot. it will demonstrate some of the frustrations with the total mess their system of managing binds is.. - if your curious and dont want to do that, what will happen is if you press either button, the functions of both buttons run at the same time in conflict. this happens on other certain keys too that I need to map but no longer can - there is something very strange going on with the binds, as when you set certain keys they work during that session, but soon as you reboot the bugs appear, what appears to work is setting the keys every time you start the game manually to what they are already saved as, it seems as if part of the binds file is ignored, maybe its applied in a layered fashion and is filtered out some how.

[@blizkriegbob9987]

Instant save, I'll have to go through this video keybind by keybind when the patch goes live

[@bar10dr]

Why are there no keybinds to manage the content of the MFD's?

[@Newdeath91]

After watching your video I jumped into PTU AC to see if maybe these keybinds would make the RSI Scorpius Antares QED/EMP usable by the pilot and sadly it did not

[@davewills148]

[@thesheep3077]

Just leave them both 'destroyed' (blow it up and don't claim it) or 'unknown' (left in space/planet surface) in ASOP, and they should get wiped. I did this with a few ships that I had multiples of, like the fleet of Auroras I somehow accumulated.

[@MarkMcVann]

@@dito4lyfe it depends on what ships you have when the patch goes live. A friend of mine only owns a Pisces but got a large hangar because of the ships he has. But if you buy a reclaimer after your hangars' been assigned then it wont upgrade you to a larger hangar.

Yikes the mouse wheel changes, it's gonna be inconsistent

[@eavdmeer]

Wasn't the mining laser power also regulated by alt+mouse wheel? So now, you change laser power, speed limiter *and*weapon group all at the same time

[@Meriak1]

Need more hands / fingers and keys , cheers for the vid

[@Aero_Yuki]

So wait, if the new way to control your ship's speed is by using L-Alt + Scroll Wheel, then how can you control your speed in mining mode? Currently, L-Alt + Scroll Wheel controls the power of your laser. Also, I can't say I'm a fan of the new changes to the scroll wheel controls (weapon group instead of speed limiter), since the way it's been is that scroll wheel controls your ship and on-foot speed.

[@jwonyoutube]

So change it. That’s why it’s called a keybind.

[@JohnTenbeers]

For what its worth, I heard when in mining mode you will not need to hold the Left Alt key any more when adjusting mining laser power, like the old days.

[@shinyreaper]

[@Random_Banshee]

@@eavdmeerThe current experience: - You load in and the first gamebreaking bug already occured before the loading screen finished, if you pressed F you can‘t get out of bed. - Once you have the workaround for that and finally got out of bed after a few minutes (just like real life ay?), you walk two (2) meters to the hab door and… stay in your room because it doesn‘t open. - Once you have solved that issue which can take a couple hours and finally manage to leave your room, you walk to the elevator inside the hab building and click but it never comes. Relog and restart from step 1. - Once you have a shard with working hab elevators, you enter the city and go shopping for some basic equipment and supplies. Wait no, you don‘t, because all the shop terminals are bugged and can‘t be interacted with. Guess you‘ll have to make due with buying what‘s on display. - Once you‘re done shopping and want to gear up and head out, you go to one of those fancy new inventory terminals and… don‘t interact with it because it‘s bugged, just like all the others around it. Ah well, surely the ones inside your hangar will be better, right? Riiiiiight? - Once you make it to the spaceport (going to skip the multitude of tram bugs since they are thankfully somewhat rare) and retrieve your ship, it doesn‘t retrieve. Ah maybe it‘ll work from inside the hangar, there‘s terminals now too after all. - What hangar? You enter the elevator and your hangar isn‘t even listed. Or maybe it is listed, but the elevator doesn‘t take you there when you select it, because your hangar doesn‘t exist either way. Guess you‘ll need a ride out of the city from someone else. - Once you basked in the generosity of a friendly taxi driver and finally made it out your spawning prison, you decide to try some missions. - No, you don‘t, because they have no mission marker. Well then, you decide to do some enterprising of your own and run some freight. You buy some and never load it onto your ship, because the cargo elevator at the outpost is broken, just as you are now broke. - You decide to join some friends to make money and experience some actual gameplay instead. They‘re stuck in the middle of nowhere with a ton of loot and could use your help anyways, thankfully you can quantum travel to party markers. - What party markers? A single person in your group can see someone else, all the rest are invisible to each other. Guess you guys will have to meet up somewhere else… - Finally you‘re all united, geared up and ready to rumble, found a loop with somewhat working mission markers too. Awesome, this is gonna be grea- Server error. Please wait…

CIG are just riding this out with your own imagination and the commercials they brings you. Star citizen is a fantasy more than a sci-fi. What i mean is you all are fantasizing about a sci-fi, based on commercials and no in-game results. Star Citizen, espally the last patch is absolute worthless garbage and you all know it. It is my belief you all (who stand by CIG) suffer sunk cost fallacy and want other people to save your fantasy because your investment wasn't enough. Chris Robber never made a good game in his life, Wing Commander 1 had nothing on Solar Eclypse. CIG keeps selling cutscenes as gameplay just like they did with the worm. Stop feeding the bears and save ethical game sales and development.
