Hi Guys,

pretty simple idea, that should also be easy to implement and increase quality of life for FC's.

basically i would love to have shortcuts to "broadcast allign to" and/or "broadcast warp to". when FC'ing I am using the shortcut to "broadcast target" quite alot, but when i want to broadcast an object to allign to i have to use the right-click-menu, which in a stressful combat situation takes more time than is convenient.

alternatively I suggest that fleetmembers can warp to a celestial object that is beeing broadcasted as target in the broadcast history.

I'll throw in some of my own requests as well:

Broadcast + action combo buttons/keys

- allow the FC to simultaneously broadcast an order and commit the act at the same time. Helpful for aligning, warping, jumping, and target calling.

Radial menu options

- I personally love the radial menu for its ease of use and would love to see some broadcasting options in it.

Non-Target Broadcasting

- whenever you have an object of interest but do not want to get it mixed in with targets. For example broadcasting a structure or non-fleeted pilot for reps, pointing out a wreck or can that you may want someone to find, or just generally pointing something out that you don't want to shoot, maybe even broadcasting yourself as a warp in or anchor.
