UPDATE: 3.3 KEY BINDINGS AND COMMANDS CLICK HERE!
Useful commands for Star Citizen Alpha 2.5
Star Citizen Alpha 2.5 is now LIVE and available to all backers with a game package. Alpha 2.5 brings with it a new base called GrimHex located in Yela asteroid field. Note:
The key bindings (controls & commands) have been again changed for this patch to improve things like getting in and out of seats and selecting landing modes.
All key settings can be found in game by accessing your options menu and looking for the Key Bindings tab.
Landing has changed from 2.4 to 2.5. In Alpha 2.5 the Landing Mode key: “N” now automatically puts the ship into Precision mode and landing pads appear with colours to guide you. The recommended landing pad (nearest to you and available) will show in Green while unavailable pads will show in Red. When you get close to the landing pad HOLD “N” to initiate the automatic landing. It is still possible to manually land like before.
