Keyboard equivalent for launch
I hope I searched for this adequately and am not duplicating anything.
I personally hate anytime I have to move my mouse. Is there a chance typing "l" or "return" can cause a ship to launch?

Would like that too.
we have been asking for this for a while.
just looked at racecar list of events ... if it could be added there we could at least make a plugin.

It can be added with a plugin right now.
Why are you looking at events for this tho? Events are there to notify you that something has happened.
If you want to do something you need a function:

Problem is, you can't easily add a keyboard shortcut in a station.
You could easily make a /launch command with simply this:
RegisterUserCommand('launch', RequestLaunch)
I'd like if it was a proper shortcut tho.
To be exact, it is most likely possible to do it but it'd involve lots of messing around with interface code. (if done with a plugin)
Unless i'm wrong on that, but i don't have time to check now.

I spoke to you about this ingame a while back and even said it would be an uber easy plugin that i could write for you, but you didnt seem that interested in the idea.
lol. im such a lua tard :p
Done!
yayz!
Aloha Breazle,
Did you mean me? If you spoke to me about this and I didn't reply favourably it was likely because I am very new and didn't at that time understand even the world of plugins. If, as you say, a plugin that would automate "Launch" from a station could be easily written, I would be all over the idea.
Sorry for any misunderstanding.
