There is still a bug in the system; If one keeps spamming the "B" button quickly enough, and stops abruptly. You can get the map looking like this:

However, You are Currently Locked into Map mode. (Cursor moving, but not your mech Torso.)

I think it would be kind of cool to be able to set your map like so and move around. Allowing Commanders To get a bigger map to observe the battle from, while Also being able to shoot and move.

If the command module was like this, with a bit of tweaking, I can assure you that I and many others would use it.

Banana!

Even if they just implemented it as the bug does - the CC mech would be gimped somewhat - but it would be MUCH easier to give commands mid-battle than it is now....

Banana!

(they will never ever guess which way I voted :P I are the subtle banana!)

I would be in favor of this, even though I did not pick that vote.... how could I with the other options?

It is already a bug in the game. Simply changing the command inputs shouldn't be too difficult in the system.

I wonder if any of the Techs could set it up in the Test Server.

It would be an interesting mode in the game.

Or allow two-monitor use for the map. I always thought that the command module should allow you to "spectate" during a match without being dead. Would be useful.

I already use my second monitor for Vent, System Performance information and Tactical Notes.

Looks like I'll have to get a third monitor then!
