Hi mate,

I remembered that the slideout console was in FF2.0 included, so I rummaged for it in my mod batch. I extracted the needed changes from the 'menu_1024_768.ini'.
There are two options for slideout: a permanent one which slides out whenever you move the cursor to the lower screen edge and a switchable one which you can toggle whenever you left-click on the most screen places [this switchable one doesn't work on all stations, such as navi & attack map and crew management view].

These are the changes you have to do in your 'menu_1024_768.ini':

1) switchable slideout console:

change

[Settings]
SlidingSpeed=200;pixels per second

to

[Settings]
SlidingSpeed=2000;pixels per second

---------------------------------------

change

[G3F I33]
...
...

to

[G3F Ixxx+1] ;if xxx is the last block number in G3F section then add 1 (e.g. if 286 is the last block number in G3F section then insert 287)
...
...

---------------------------------------

insert this new block into G3F section (at best beyond block [G3F I32]):
