Piloting
When a player enters the Pilot seat he gains control of the Ship to fly and navigate. If there is no one in control, the computer will take over and navigate to previously set waypoints.
The computer however will only plot a safe course which will use more time and fuel.
If a player is sitting in the pilot seat he can steer the ship [mouse axis], thrust forwards [W] and thrust backwards [S], thrust to the left [A] and to the right [D] or role the ship leftwards [Q] and towards the right [E].
He can enter a travel mode [TAB] and increase speed [mouse wheel up] and decrease it [mouse wheel down] or can set up the travel speed with the keys [1-0]. Furthermore he can Boost the Ship [SHIFT] with the afterburner.
In a non combat situation his main task are managing orbital trajectories, avoiding objects specially on shortcut routes through asteroid fields.
He will coordinate the alignment of the sensor dish with the sensor operate, if the sensor operator wants to take a closer look to a specific area.
He need to communicate with the Drone Operator and the Sensor operator to set up a orbit for mining, scooping or other drone based interactions.
In a combat situation his main task are dodging attacks and maneuver the ship into tactical positions.
As Combat is not part of the prototype, this section will get an update if it becomes necessary
