How to manually fire weapons?
So I made five ships, fully functional with AI in designer mode. but when I start the campaign mode, I don't have any crystals to make the AI mainframe or card slots. so I need to control them by hand, but I have no idea how. some help please!

Middle mouse click to shoot weapons when you are close enough also scrolling down and up for selecting between 1-6 and then "all weapons". Crystals come quickly if you remove a repair tentacle and then place a cyrstal farm.
thanks for the help CrushedEmber!

I started with 15 crystals in my Campaign mode. It's enough to get a crystal farm going.

The shirke's weapons are probably too far away to be controlled by hand,or you don't have a nessecary component in the Shrike to control weapons.

I have not looked at the shrike but unless you have a weapons controller on board and near your character you will not be able to use weapons that are not pretty close to you. You can always add a seat and controllers anywhere you would like. I personally need to find a comfortable remap for the manual fire, I have a bad habit of accidently changing weapons when I press the middle mouse down.

I just use Ctrl to fire.

Doesnt work for me too well with planes because I am ususally looking around with the mouse (right hand) and the left hand is on the other side of the keyboard handling aircraft controls. I just need to take the time one day and tweak everything to a comfortable area of the keyboard for me.

I always get my view situated in a nice position before I even take off,and I use my right hand for airplane movement,and left hand controls WASD,Spacebar,Alt,Shift,and Ctrl. Eight buttons for five fingers,but my thumb and pinky both have two buttons,the thumb has Space and Alt,while the pinky has Ctrl and Shift.

place a fire control computer next to your pilot chair

Just recently found that out,although,I find it'll be too hard to control on my plane.

I never fly planes manually except to prove their speed for use in campaign
