Affirmative on being a [frustrated] n00b.. but I've been playing Sh3-4 since prehistory so..

Started sh5 with TWoS because I know I would have eaten my mouse on the spot if I only dared playing vanilla.
Hours passed plowing through nonsensical design.

Still cant find a keybinding for jumping to stations, which I deem a fairly essential UI feature, buried inside multilevel autohiding tiny icon trees.
Cannot even find how to keep the external visual on because the options reset on their own accord without any warning.

And why they removed the usual hydro-wheel mouse control, which was perfect, putting 2 keys instead which I'll have to press until arthritis ??
Overall the UI style is so awkward, hardly anything can be figured out without resorting to forum posts, I'm just citing the latest woes that came to mind.

I expected the usual bugs and dumbdowns, but at the bare minimum I need a practical UI worth of a naval strategy/sim type game.
But this reeks of a first person shooter with hints of awful smartphone-style controls.

And in the end where is the graphics advance? I wonder if it even looks any better than modded sh4 tbh.
