Settings Breakdown

This one is deceptively dangerous. If you turn it on, the system will quietly steal power from other components any time you try to increase something like shields. That sounds convenient until your radar drops, your coolers shut off, or your weapons stop working mid fight and you have no idea why.

We do not allow the game to make those decisions for us. Power management is intentional, not automatic.

Look ahead and padlock both take control away from you. That’s unacceptable in high level flight.

Ping being always available is just straight advantage. There is no downside, so we take it.
