"Set speed" control mode
Thrust and rotation are same as above
- Enter, T: Set speed faster
- Right Shift, G: Set speed slower
Engaging any of the translation thrusters will tempralily disengage Set Speed Mode, until the directional thrust is cut.
A useful tip when you need to approach ships, either in combat, or a SAR mission for example. Pressing ctrl+LMB on the tartget will set it as the reference frame. Then the Set Speed mode will work relative to the ship, which in practice acts like a match speed mode, if speed is set to 0.
Joystick Controls
Cheats and debug
- CTRL-I: Debug informations (FPS and other statistics).
- CTRL-F10: Object viewer. Shows the currently targeted object. It allows for editing the properties of target planet
- CTRL-F12: Spawn a hostile ship
- Console: ~ or ´ depending on keyboard. Some useful commands for debugging/testing code/contributions are given here, but remember, cheating is for weaklings. However, it is allowed to restore borked saves.
