Hello

It is currently not possible to customize the hotkeys for the new fighters, including squad selection, standard attack, propulsion and special ability without messing up the hotkeys of the traditional set of modules.

And even worse if you have have a custom mapping for the traditional Low/med/high slots it renders the hotkeys of the fighter pretty much unusable.


So now my only option to minimize mouse clicks is to revert to default mapping. And that is still not giving me the option of Hot-keying the basic Launch fighter/Recall Fighters/Access Fighters bays/ squadron selection.

Is there any plan of allowing us to customize the new capital drones actions and mentioned above control on the short term?

Thanks you for your time.

if you hold shift and click each squadron indivifually, you will be able to hotkey the attack function (f1) and have all squad attack the same target. recalling you do (shift+R) i believe. fighter bay im not sure about. I would like to see new hot keys tho. the new system is quite complex which feels like an effort to reduce macro use (which I am all for) but i would like to see it simplified just a bit for we users who arent rich enough to go afk with a carrier
