Map UI actions to keyboard?

[Frontier359]

Is it possible to map every command on the interface (nearest visual contact, weather report, depth under keel, hydrophone updates, etc) to keyboard hotkeys? If so, which file do I need to mess with and how would I go about it?

I'm no expert at it, but I do know you can alter the keybordkeys pretty much to whatever you want them to be in the SilenthunterIII\data\cfg map. These three files are in there somewhere:
commands_en.cfg
commands_de.cfg
commands_fr.cfg

You can just open them with WordPad and alter them. I'm not sure, but the one you would want to change depends on your keyboard lay-out En=English, De=Deutsch, FR=Français; so depending on what country you're from and what keyboard lay-out you have.
(But please, someone correct me if I'm wrong)

btw, quite a lot of mods will also change these files, so if you change them yourself, some of your mods might not work anymore.

Thank you.

What he said. You only have to change the one for the language you're using; the others don't matter.

A piece of advice, though: Once you have it the way you like it, put a copy in a special folder and don't lose it. Every time I install a new mod I check to see if it alters the Commands.cfg, and reinstall my special one. That way I don't get surprised while playing.
