I encountered a weird issue where the lasers on my Catapult, even though both are tied to LMB, will fire one after another instead of at the same time. It's actually really awesome when you're near heat threshold to bleed out the lasers with the same button, but I can't not do it so it sucks when I'm good on heat. I can't tell how I made it to do that and regardless of using different mechs (which don't have the issue) and playing other rounds, it's always the same now in the Catapult. If I switch which weapons are tied to LMB, it seems to do the same thing (i.e. with dual PPCs). Is there a setting I changed by accident or is something bugged? All of my group 1 buttons on my weapon screens seem to flash dark gray throughout the round now, but only with my catapult that's been doing this weird thing all of a sudden.

I've asked in a number of different games and nobody has responded so if this is a feature it seems like not many people know or just don't care to assist.

Any help appreciated.

So does backspace toggle chain firing only for the weapon group that's highlighted or all weapons? Thanks all for the quick snark free replies!!

Weapon group highlighted. They remain on chain fire until toggled back.

Just the group that you set it to.

If you look down there you'll see that that column is blinking from top to bottom to signify that it's set to chain fire.

Really? I thought it was alt-f4 to set chain fire.

Or was that external views
