Newcomer / Intro Power Management

[Wombat1940]

I can't get the keys to adjust Power Management to work: <up arrow> <down arrow> <R arrow> and <L arrow> for adjusting System, Engines & Weapons. Which cockpit view mode should I be in ? Thanks.

They should work in both analysis and combat view modes.

I don't see any reference to analysis and combat view modes in the key binding options page. What is the key bind for Combat View Mode? Thanks.

For me it is '6'

Your probably going to have to change some of if not all of the keyboard/mouse or hotas or controller settings to suit you. Could take a whiles. Took me 2 weeks to fine tune my hotas.
Now its like 2nd nature memory muscle as I'm in vr. Be patient cmdr.
If your in vr you'll know why. If not ..... try it.

I can't see why the default key binds don't work, unless I'm in the wrong mode. Here are the default binds:

Ok. I've changed it from <up arrow> to <6> and it works. Thanks.

Hi Wombat

I mean the toggle between combat mode and analysis mode is set to '6' for me.
For power priorities I am actially using CTRL + wasd. So CTRL + A for set more power to SYS, CTRL + W set more power to ENG, CTRL + S reset power to default etc.

I can also use the arrows on the keyboard but hardly use those as I do not have three hands (YET)

If you can not figure it out let me know and I will make some ingame screenshot

Thank GroG, but I've re-bound keys for Power Management:
<6> increase power to Engines.
<SHF> <6> increase power to Systems.
<CTR> <6> increase power to Weapons.
<ALT> <6> balances power between E, S & W.

And they all work.

 

[Wombat1940]

In regard to toggling between Combat and Analysis modes, the default keyboard key is <m> or <SHF> <m>.
