Default Battlestations key assignment

Apologies gents but I've done a few searches using "battlestations" and "key" but it's obviously buried somewhere in the numerous threads.

Q: How do I assign the "B" key to Battlestations? I know it's in a config file somewhere but damned if I can find it.

Thanks.

It's in .....Data\Cfg\Commands.cfg

[Cmd436]
Name=Toggle_battle_stations
Ctxt=1
Key0=0x42,,"B"

(add the red line)

but this command also uses the B for binocular view

[Cmd544]
Name=Adv_Binocular_camera
Ctxt=11
Key0=0x42,,"B"

Don't know if that would cause any problems or not since they are in different contexts, but if you were on the bridge and hit B you'd get the binoculars for sure. If you don't use the binoculars command, you could just comment out the key for cmd544 with a semi-colon [;]

Use the SH4 Keyboard Config Application to assign any key combination you want. Personally, I use Ctrl+B to Toggle Battle Stations.

Default Thanks

Thanks gents;
the middle mouse gets the binos so reassigning the 'B' key shouldn't be a problem.
Have a great Hogmanay and all the best for the New Year.
