Latest most up-to-date keyboard command list?
I've found some like this that are from launch but missing a whole bunch of commands (like shift-space) https://www.yekbot.com/x4-foundations-controls-for-pc-keyboard/

Can anyone help me here?

The current and most accurate list is available in-game, in the settings menu, under controls. This is also where you can change any keybindings you don't like. You can delete keybindings by trying to bind them to the delete key, I think? It's a bit odd.

I just wanted a really nicely parsed list I could print out.

I'm the same I like having a reference sheet. Specially with games like this, its a lot to keep track of when you also play a bunch of other games.

I too would like a handy, printable reference... There are many keys, different in different contexts... Looking at the settings for the control itself can give one a migraine pretty quickly...

I searched for an answer of the X4 Wiki[www.egosoft.com] which is linked from the egosoft.com website.

Hidden at the bottom of page titled "An Unofficial Manual for X4: Foundations" is a section called Appendix 1: Hotkeys + Default keybinds[www.egosoft.com]

I don't know if that list is up-to-date and complete, but that might be a good place to start.

And since it's a wiki open for editing by players, we're all welcome to update/correct/add any keybinds as needed.

Some years ago, i have testing some speach programe with this game and other such as elite dangerous" and this type of programme work well, it's completly change the gameplay, you can make thing you never make usually and they look more real because you give more of your command by voice and not with keyboard...,

they have some good programmes, such as voice attack or they have one good too on steam, but the most big part of this programme is to configure it to put all the command key and the line of text they mush associate with it when you talk, and you can even create command they don't exist in the game because it's imposible to push more key in the same time to make more different action, but when you have make it it's good for always and you can keep your two hand on the control of the ship by example and talking to the computer for the rest of the command, it's make a litle if you talk to your crew in the cokpit...,

anyway for me i love better this reality than make all with the keyboard, but because i have no time to configure it for now i need to play with mouse and keyboard and it's make such as if i am handicaped because i push the wrong button, not enought fast to retrieve the command, ect...

Came here looking for a complete keyboard layout not just a list. If anyone else is looking for a graphic version, I found one here.

Cool find. I'd not heard of the Video Game Keyboard Database before. I'll have to bookmark that for future use. :steamthumbsup:

IYou can also edit the inputmap xml files in your user folder under Documents. And many of them you can keep adding more lines for the same mappings, and they'll duplicate in the in-game menu as a result. AFAIK it's the only way to get 3+ options mapped to the same command, and it doesn't work on every item.

I've made a downloadable map here with the most recent default keybinds :
