Group Fire button

Firing weapons individually is ok but can be time-consuming. What would be nice, especially for things like multi-SRM-armed support titans, would be a button that allows you to fire off all the weapons on a titan at once – group fire. It would speed up the game. The program could be set to interrupt at different situations similar to the Wait… system. I’e.; when a critical is scored, when Titan heat moves up a level, when target is knocked over etc. You could then fire individually, press the group fire button again or target someone else. What does anyone think? Am I just being impatient? Did anyone suggest this before?

That sounds like a pretty cool idea, actually. Would it take too much coding, Larkin?

Technically, that's alphastrike, not group fire. Group fire is when you have several TICs to which you can assign groups of weapons, and fire each group individually.

True. Either or both would be very nice, though. Being able to fire all or some of your weapons with one click would certainly speed up game play.

Problem is to break the group fire on certain conditions like enemy prone ....
In general its not too much a problem but with my current workload .....
