Can follow and ghost be changed, Follow should always stay behind the ship but be able to do the same speed. Change Ghost to GOTO, someone calls for help you can select and it will take you to them but not follow them around.
Right now when you are in a sup if you press follow you sometimes come out of the jump infront of the ship you have on follow. That really sucks for when you are following a bomber.
Shig told me to post it so he doesn't forget.

The J key.
if you press the 'h' button, it auto targets the source of the last distress call
so, j, then j. If your target is moving, take some time to hit "f2", followed by "ctrl+x" to see if he's moving or not.

Would you like a key that also makes the enemy ship blow up? Or maybe automatically editor moves you to their position?
jeeze, it's not too many keys. it's what...3 keys? 5? Considering it takes a whole 3 seconds to press, is your time really that important?

If you took that as a personal insult then I guess I am right you are just angry.

This is not a flame post. Daedalus posted an idea. I went "this idea doesn't make sense because you can do it anyway in about 4 key strokes, which doesn't warrant some kind of command"
Daedalus then proceeded to claim I was angry for some reason.
???
Profit

The keys are already in DS they just need to be reworked.

Few keys could use some looking after. Personally, I really think DarkSpace needs to allow the user to re-configure keys.

Well, let's hear some suggestions then. Although I personally think the keys work perfectly, I have some pretty wierd control schemes.
Anyway, i'm curious as to how you think an optium control scheme would be
and yeah, having customizable keys would be nice, but right not you can circumvent that by using a very simple macro program.
