Slide menu?

The freecam should NOT be used during your critical approach or evasion. But, otherwise - does knowledge of the convoy contents change your attack strategy? First of all, I attack all convoys regardless of their contents. I always drift in on an oblique angle past the lead escort, and attack the middle convoy lane (tankers, cruisers, etc). They're always structured the same way - big in the middle, little on the outside. As for plotting a course for intercept, knowledge of the convoy or TF contents doesn't aid in my intercept. It just helps decide whether it's worth doing or not. I think about it this way - i could plot the perfect intercept for every sound/visual contact, but there aren't that many hours in the day. It's not realistic to have a flying drone, but when yer this good , the freecam's not a difference in quality of play, but rather a difference in time spent at the screen.

But I agree with disabling the <> keys because they are kinda useless but strangely tempting.
