Seeing as I was on the planet at the start thought I would skim the surface and see if I could find anything....

Which I did.....

What would come in handy is a button that would disable the panels from opening when using TrackIR when flying low.....So you can look around unhindered......

Indeed, that lower window is starting to annoy me, I would much rather have this just in functions panel instead.

It feels shoehorned in as if we must use all spaces possible for UI panels.
Half of it is just reiterating the shipyard info text and I don't need to have that a button away...

Deploying and boarding could have simply been a button, same for dismiss/recall ship.

I think there is a setting for switching the <Head Tracking> device panels on or off stuff, but it's in the "controls" menu of the game. You have to either bind it to a key, or VA.. but I'm pretty sure it's there somewhere.. ;)
Of course...sigh :( , I have to wait for the release to find out... *sniff* :cry:
Oh.. I also have to wait for Christmas for a head tracker.. :(
But after then.... :D :D :D

Well it is beta......And saying that you never know what might happen....

Besides gotta try and break it as much as possible.....

Not that it needs any help from me on that front at the moment.....

It seems rather good at breaking itself.....
