Add option to disable & enable action from the action menu and pretty much kill the action menu
New, WishlistPublic

Description

There are many unecessary actions in the action menu because some of those things have own shortcuts.

Things that have shortcut that could be taken off from the action menu:

  • Weapon changing
  • Get out
  • Eject
  • Engine on/off
  • Turn in/out
  • Lights on/off
  • Auto-hover on/off
  • Flaps up/down
  • Gear up/down
  • Open gear

Things that could be taken out from the action menu for other reasons:

  • Collision light, make a shortcut for these
  • Rearm, we have the gear menu where this should be done
  • Change to different magazine, we have the gear menu where this should be done
  • Touch off bomb(s), give this an own shortcut and we could remove it
  • Explosives, should have their own menu thing or you should be take those on your hands and then you can set them on the ground
  • Choosing seat/vehicle&static weapon mounting from the outside, should be done like in Action Button Mod where you watch the seat and that's where you mount
  • Door open, should always happen when you watch the door and you click action button

Is the seat changing inside a vehicle and medic things the only thing I left in the action menu that's needed? BECAUSE THAT'S THE WAY IT SHOULD BE!

Just give option to disale all kinds of things so community can customize and disable things easily. For example with ACE 3 we don't even need medic stuff in the action menu-

+1 voted up. There was editor for action menu for A2. The action menu is so big beacuse in prewious arma wasnt so many sortcuts. It takes me lot of time to get used to new controls after playing Arma 3

This should be in menu>option>game like any other things (for example new option to change control of commands keys), or like color scheme to change.

I agree 100 %. Specifically explosives need to be moved to an item, instead of being bound to a character. Select trigger, click fire button *boom*.
