Update 01.078 - Main Cockpit, Button Panel hints

Summary
Players now have the option to choose the Main Cockpit. This cockpit will be used for controlling their ship or station. The other cockpits will only be used for controlling turrets and other blocks, but not for controlling the ship itself. We also added hints for the Button Panels – this will make the use of the button panels more convenient by showing hints before clicking on each button. Lastly, there is a “Report a Bug” button available on the Main Menu – this is an easier way for the players to report the bugs that they find in the game.

Also, awesome update. What happens if getting in that one chair that has no first-person mode?

 

Yey! :}

EDIT: video is private

EDIT#: now it's fine

 

Woot!

 

nice

 

Yay ! No more exploding Thrusters :>

And yes, the clip is private ^^

So next Realistic Sounds ?

 

YEAH!

 

wow
such wow

 

Button Panel hints? Not exactly a major feature, but I hoped for it for as long as the button panel existed. Great work!

 

Next update's going to be something huge, kids. I tell ya, HUGE.

 

Awesome!

 

YESSS

 

Very nice Update. I love the option to disable 3rd person view. When turned off you need much mor piloting skills ans spatial sense especial when flying a big pod!
Oh and the buttonhints are very useful

 

Looks good. I've been using cameras for a while now. I find them very helpful, especially the zoom feature. Thanks Keen!

 

AWWW YEEEEA

 

Every day, in every way, getting better and better!

 

now I only need a door with only a configurable button (airlock), or is there something like that in a mod?

 

Not too happy with this one (hints I like), can we please get an ETA on the Multi-core CPU support and DX11 optimization plz I'm tired of retiring old saves due to complexity, Also, please add a feature to track down leaks in an area, I have spent anywhere up to 3 hours removing blocks and placing blocks trying to find air leaks.

 

Yay button tips. I was about to ask for this but now I don't need to. lol. They can read my mind. *worries*

 

WHICH IS THEIR MAIN COCKPIT GRAAAAR!!!!!

 

Exactly! This is the way I build my ships.

 

does this apply to remote control blocks as well?

 

Hints on button panels? Nice! This is going to be VERY useful!

Also, I agree on needing more than one main cockpit. Perhaps a "secondary cockpit" option is useful for this.

 

I like the Main Cockpit idea to an extent, Like some of you guys are saying you have one at the bridge and one on the battle bridge. I'd like to see an option of Main cockpit then maybe 2 or 3 slave cockpits. Main takes priority over piloting the slave can pilot the ship. Just an idea. I'm not going to use that option, to much. I do like the idea of locking the ship, can we get an option of lock ship on the cockpits? where as like main cockpit the current cockpits can pilot the ship, but anymore added to the ship cannot pilot the ship.

 

should be easy enough if the Main Cockpit option is exposed to the code API. You could write a program to switch between main cockpits when a button is pressed. Have a button panel in both rooms linked to the programmable block with that code. Viola!!

 

Small Ship Air Supply... ! WEEEEE

 

My mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=317841523 has an airlock functionality, I'll be releasing integration with air vent in a day or so.

 

great polish
