Post MC'ing with concussion
Hi,

this is more of a hint than an actual guide, but I've noticed a feature that tremendously helps MCing, especially 3 and more clients at the same time.

As you know, it's not uncommon to find one of the alts slung into space by a nearby explosion and drifting too far in a criticaal moment. This can be countered by ALT+TABing from 1 client to another WHILE holding the S key - just as you can lock thrust and firing, you can easily lock brake on that alt in an inactive window.

So next time something explodes among your alts that you are not currently controlling, you won't see them helplessly drifting off, but just twitch a little before they go to 0 speed again.

Or just hold down s then open the chat bar by pressing T...

Mcing is too damn easy, and concussion does nothing to affect it.

when MCing a monk and something else, use an anni thruster on the ShM. Hold down "s" then press "t" as kanga said, and everything is fine and you get a cool engine!!!

I personally have never had any problems with this, tbh. I never understood what people were complaining about.

totally

mcing is all about imagination with the setup. you're limited in so many ways that you have to make concessions and sometimes invent new strategies.

I dont think you're so limited...I MC all the time, it's not that bad as long as you keep your taskbar available.

This is in guides time warp and thus is here for future players too, who may be coming across this for the first time.
