Keyboard shortcuts needed

Could we get a few thrown in Beta 4?

G - guard
S - sentry
F1 - Sector map
F2 - Planet list
F3 - Ship/fleet list
F4 - Domestic Policy
F5 - Foreign Policy
F6 - Research

Just a few off the top of my head, maybe put the bindings in a text file so it can be changed if someone doesn't like them?

Thanks,

Kvim

Oh, one more:

W - Wait

Would be nice to put a ship at the end of the move queue so you don't move the wrong ships at the wrong time. I hate it when I attack with my transport instead of the battleship :)

Yes, let's get these in before Beta 4.

Kvim,

There has been some discussion about function and excellerator keys before you joined us. If you are interested I could try to find the thread and pop it up for you. There are quite a few ideas about what they should be, but if GC/OS2 is any indication then I think we can count on what keys SD chooses to assign to what function will be well thought out.

Also, the G and S keys already set a ship to guard or sentury status. I have been using these keys for many builds. Another key already in is the "c" key that centers the screen on the selected ship.

Jack, could you maybe e-mail me the list of suggested hot keys?

Cari,

I will do that, just as soon as I can pull them off of your server archives.

I found the thread and sent a clip to you.

Cheers,
