Is there a list of undocumented keybindings available anywhere. I know there are keybindings to hide various UI elements and take screenshots and stuff like that that are not listed in the in-game options panel but I don't know what all of them are.

All help appreciated.

I have found a few by accident.

F9: Toggle X/Y/Z cordinates + FPS counter display

ALT+Numpad Enter: Toggles Window mode / Fullscreen

Backspace: Toggles CHAINFIRE on select weapon group

That is all I have found so far.

Alt and either enter key toggles fullscreen/window mode.

i looked all over for the screenshot key so I could report bugs. It isn't there. You have to run a separate windows app like FRAPS which allows you to choose a binding for snapshots and movies. It's pretty good. Of course the user base is big enough now that nearly every bug I find is already in a poll one day after the patch releases. Good on them.

New one for me today the left ctrl key allows free view or arm views, torso doesnt twist but small o for arm weapons turns with mouse.

R-Shift F11 disables the HUD.

I HATE left ctrl being the move arms without moving cockpit... I haven't checked but if I can I'm rebinding it to left shift at some point. On my Desktop it's not an issue, but on my laptop it's very uncomfortable to keep my pinkie on the left ctrl for something I use so rarely.

Q displays the names and variant names of all MechWarriors you can see, friend or foe. Useful for figuring out who that Commando scout in front of you is quickly.

There is, from your home screen (with the newsfeed, mech/pilot lab, launch button, etc) click "menu' on the lower left and go to options, double click whatever you want to rebind and it'll start flashing green, hit the key you want, when done, click save

Unless there is evil ECM on the field. >=O

Then just shoot the Commando until he screams at you in team chat. (KIDDING!)

[So who took Pilot Name as a name]

O this could be fun experimenting to find out what could have been unwillingly left in the game!

Like... I dunno... wireframe mode? Gotta love sneaky debug options!

LCtrl is not "move arms independant of torso", it is "Free look". IMHO it is a bug that the arm reticule follows the look.
It is also not undocumented, it is in the options as "Free Look". When head tracking (ie TrackIR) support goes in, you should be able to look around with your head independently of aim.

ALT+Enter (Toggle Fullscreen) is not a MWO key, it is a windows one.

Q to show targets is also not undocumented. It is in the options as "Show Target Overlay".
