end KEY BY MISTAKE

[ECA]

Anyone hit this key...and find out what it does?

DROP CARGO..ALL your cargo..
In ELITE2(frontier) you could select what was DROPPED..
It would be NICE to VERIFY/ASK, If I want to DROP my cargo..

Rebind it to something else, ie shift and end.

 

[natte hond]

just disable it in the control options list.
then you can only drop your cargo from the ingame menu.

 

[Stressfest]

Yup, unbind anything you don't want to hit by mistake

 

[Vicis]

Re-binded it as soon as I lost all my cargo inside a station. Pretty sure they set the default binding to END just to mess with us.

 

[natte hond]

the game is still pretty much under development.
thus things like this will surly change.

I know this guy who had assigned under his voice commands.
and once dumped all his cargo into a star because he repeated my sentence.

* eject cargo

This is why one of the first things I do with any new game before I start playing it is peruse the keybindings, rebind things to where I want them, and unbind the things I don't want.

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

In the help menu on loadup screen the keyboard commands give L "Light" and do not assign "Landing Gear" at all. Head lights sure are more important in space huh!
Why is Z and CAPS not assignable like F10 is screenshot?

 

[Macgyver]

I once hit the end key...

And lost half my house and savings...

 

[MARPATdroid]

I used to be a trader, until I took an end key to the knee... I then cursed for hours, trying to rebuild my capital after unbinding that stupid key.

Thanks for the replies..

REALLY why would you place it there..Inactive things happen there, like RADAR RANGE..
Its far enough to be things that ARNT DANGEROUS, and that is a dangerous key..
Thank god I only dropped 4 tons Hydrogen..

lucky you, i tried to dock at henke orbital with 40 or so odd tons of gold, gallium and random stuff from pirating was in danger of getting scanned and tried to quickly press the silent run button....and that's how i got my first big fine. luckily i had an outstanding bounty to cover it.
