Key bindings for the NPC pilot's orders!

[lysan]

We know that we will be able to give the NPC fighter pilot orders, like aggressive, defensive and so on. However we will need to look down each time we need to change the order.
If possible I would like a "command central" for orders to the NPC crew instead of the orders are connected to the fighter bay.

It could be a new tap on the right panel where you also can key bind the orders to. This way if you are in the middle of a battle, you will not need to take your eyes away from the fight, but can just issue the order via keys or joystick / Voice Attack.

What do you think?

TBH, I assume we would!? It would sort of follow suit to the keybindings we have for Wingmen surely?

Yeah VA or at least on the JS would be a nice feature.

I'm pretty sure they already said there will be keybinds at Gamescom.

I'm not sure if i still have an unbound button on my keyboard [blah]

I currently don't have unbound buttons on my HOTAS for that, but I guess I could unbind the wing targetting, I hardly use that anyway.

Generally I'd prefer to just slot them in a fire group and direct them to the target that needs killing. Otherwise let them swarm around me and kill anything that looks at me funny at their whim.

Same here. Although maybe the number buttons are still free.
