if english isn't your first language, i can translate to french or german probably for you.

anyway,
  • chain fire will fire all the weapons in a group, in sequence. you can stop the sequence by releasing the fire group key at any time.
  • heat override will allow you to keep your mech running even when it reaches the 'emergency shutdown' threshold. this is dangerous because you might spontaneously detonate at any time. it will self damage until you explode.
  • arm lock prevents the arms from aiming independantly of the torso twist. use this to prevent wasting ammo or heat when you forget if you put a weapon on a torso or an arm.
  • toggle arm lock - lock or unlock arms at any time, see above.
  • switch mech lets you pilot a mech that one of your AI is using, and an ai will take over your mech instead.

-point reticle at enemy, press button and it will 'lock' sensors on that target. you need this for shooting LRMs at them, or issue order to ai squadmate.

-this will power your mech off or on when you press it. dont press it during combat lol.

EDIT: at this point man, please consult the game manual, reading keybinds, or using google for mechwarrior 5. i also suggest joining mechwarrior 5 discord for realtime support. The free trial for mw5 hammer of evil steam support has just expired, from here on out its 5.99$ per minute.

Hammer what advice you're giving won't matter, this OP is nothing but a bot who's been banned before all the way back in January of this year, guess the ban wore off but judging by the fact that their spamming the same questions just like last time the bot being unbanned won't exactly be long.
