I've recently re-played the entire Wing Commander collection and I came to know about this wonderful new indie game!
First of all thank you for this great effort!
Nevertheless I have a question for you: could it be possible to have the default WC keyboard commands as an option in a future update? I mean it's quite boring and tedious to learn again all the shortcuts and key strokea while you are playing. It lacks continuity.
You can customise the keyboard mapping youself until you are comfortable with it. Keep in mind though that the earlier Wing Commander games had far fewer shortcuts because they were less complex. The Freespace engine allows you to do much more, so as a result there are many more key combo's to learn.
