I see this Thread is Still up. Thats because its important. Short cut Keys let us take advantage of all the keys on the keyboard, you don't have to use them. I played the Mechwarrior series of games which has a high level of control and customizablity of your keyboard layout. (or Joystick/ Throttle but thats another thing).
Selecting and Targeting Objects for example this is as simple as Ctrl T (nearest) or Ctrl E (enemy). Oh I hear the cries over Macroing but get over it, the serious macroers hook into python and the ui directly with more controls and timers and behaviors than shortcuts alone could provide. This is about adding serious functionality for a great playing experience.
Your not just selling a game, your selling an experience. ("Serious Businees alert ) Things like this enhance the state of play every bit as much as the Shiny Graphics. The UI is where the rubber hits the road, let us really see what this baby can do!

A key to tab through ships/things we've targeted would be golden.
I agree, this option would help immensely.

Agree with op, however red numbers floating up out of my ship would be kind of nice... like the sprouting of pretty flowers.
The looting UI needs the most fixing imho. Count the number of clicks you need to make in order to drag loot from a wreck or can into your cargohold. Even with Alt+A its still a pain in the butt to manage looting while locking new wrecks, tractoring, salvaging, all the while keeping an eye on directional scanner for probers.
Give us autoloot ccp! My fingers hurt, this is one reason why most ppl let their wrecks rot, eating up valuable server flops! Have a module where all wrecks owned by you are automatically looted when in range. Do the same thing with salvagers.

As has been said time and time again, deterring macroing at the expense of fun is not a good idea. Find a solution to macroing rather than a deterrent.

First post on these boards and it has to be this. Please, please can we have hot keys for all ship actions.
People say that it will turn eve into a CS style game but this is completely bonkers, it already has that aspect, you just have to right click and maneuver through a context window as fast as you can. I would desperately like to not have to look at context menus all the time please CCP.

I also would appreciate a customizable UI, or at least have the possibility to control my ships actions by using keyboard shortcuts.
I fully understand the fear of macro usage, and i also understand that there is no scriptable interface, but please CCP, provide more keyboard-shortcuts.
Keyboard-Shortcuts enhance the gaming experience, more than ever when you are using a mac - as i do. Eve is very right-click intense, and thats not the best thing implemented on mac.
I think the big point is: the majority of good MMORPGs have the same problems with people harvesting something, and some of them surely will try to do that by scripts. But today there are also companies specialized in harvesting or leveling your mmorpg characters, using real people. How is this prevented? These ppl sometimes spam the rookie-chat with their advertising, is there anybody doing something against them? The only argument is read is "keyboard shortcuts would enable abusing eve, using macro scripts for mining a.s.o".....
In my opinion providing keyboard-shortcuts is not really a door-opener for abusing eve. It will just bring one thing - a UI that will be much better to use....
The shortcuts for using weapons, Ctrl-Click for Targeting and so on is a good first step. Please CCP, give us more, your definitly on the right way...

PLAN AND SIMPLE, macros have been here, are here, and will always be here, that is how games work, so y do we worry about isk inflation, and other things, the best way to prevent that is DONT GIVE IN TO THE SPAM..... i would love the ability to have keyboard shortcuts for things like..
DEPLOY ALL DRONES, UNLOCK ALL TARGETS, DOCK COMMANDS, JUMP GATE COMMANDS, FIRE ALL.
some other thing that ccp should change as well, MISSLE CYCLE firing, i hate having to wait for my launchers to cycle for like 3 or 4 secs before i can fire on another target. i hate that stupid auto pilot jump gate safty thing, if you flying big ships, hulk, freighters, etc, it takes forever to get up to the gate, THAT SUCKS BAD going though low sec systems, man i have been bumped a few times and got ganked because of that stupid safety, SO PLEASE HELP US, ccp

please provide a more customizable interface. changing focus from my ship to what i have to click on is very very very frustrating.
- tab targeting
- key to lock and unlock
- non-function key for utilizing modules
- key to orbit and another to keep at range
.

please implement some sort of key mapping similar to (i hate to say it) wow... that would make eve truely amazing. as it stands forcing users to mouse click anything is a major flaw in this game in my opinion.

Please make this with some patch at long last. I mean I can bind anything I want to 1234QWERTASDFZXCV in almost any MMO... except EVE. Why?! Clicking sux! Give us "single-pressed" hotkeys already.

Keyboard Shortcuts, please! if not then atleast let us seperate commands
from the menu to be 1-click away.... maybe that's more complicated to do
than just simple key commands
-target
-warp
-etc. |

I've posted ideas in main Idea thread before I've found this one.
I'll be nice if there would be:
1. Hotkey for toggle tactical overlay mode is strongly required (ctrl+T for example)
2. a hotkey to launch all the drones
3 (?) a bunch of keys (ctrl+1...+2 ctr;+0) to launch a particular group of drones
4. a hotkey for a (un) directional scan

btw this hotkeys are not about minig :)
but for PVP (and a bit of PvE) are strongly required !!

The OP is right on the mark, because of the decision to link the keyboard to the active chat, Eve has suffered from ridiculously convoluted hot-keys, and forced players into a mundane game of clicking rather than worrying about the actual tactics or gameplay at hand. I hope CCP strongly considers making chat 'click' or 'enter' to activate, and creating customizable hot-keys for all normally mouse-only selectable game functions. |
