Title: Hotkeys on the clipboard?
Post by: scottydawg on April 20, 2006, 03:38:15 PM

I don't use my mouse much, and maybe I'm missing something, but it would be great if the menu on the clipboard had hotkeys, like H for hangar T for Tower, etc. etc.  I know the current mapping is daunting for new players and this might get laughed at as seeming picky, but I think that would be cool.

Thanks!

use your mouse? if you did that then what would you use them for if you didn't have a joystick like for your flaps and stuff:confused:

If your in a plane/vehicle, and want to go to tower. .ef into the radio buffer.

There is a whole list of dot commands in the downloadable help file.

.ef
.move # (field number)
.plane # (p51 =1 list goes up from there)
.country 1,2,3 (1 = bishop, 2 knight, 3 rook)


I do agree that a couple of functions could use a hotkey.

One to go to the hanger.
Another to pull the roster up.

I did ask HT one time when he was in blue , the answer was :
"not likely" :(
