TrackIR support?
If SQUADRONS wants to move away from arcade push button Gamepad flying, it NEEDS to offer Flight stick/HOTAS support and TrackIR/VR support. Not to mention the shown micro management, we all loved i...

Please Please TrackIR is needed ASAP
@LT-Wolf_Fedaykin i agree TrackIR would be the solution. However there is another thread already dealing with it. I'm suggesting this as an alternative if they decide in their infinite wisdom to not implement TrackIR, to at the very least provide us with a button toggle to FreeLook-Track the current targetted ship on our rader.
eg. Xwing in front of you, you target it, then hold down the freelooktrack button, and for as long as you are holding it, the cam will focus follow the target up to a max of 180 degrees above/below/sides of your center cockpit. This will 'artificially' give you the TrackIR equivalent of following your target.
Sadly it won't help you sightsee the beauty of the environment as it's only going to work during combat, but hey... it's better than nothing.

@BullitMagnit74I think that's called "padlock" in other flight sims, which would be another good step in the right direction...
Where is this other thread you mentioned?- @LT-Wolf_Fedaykin I just realized, they merged the thread I created (request freelook target tracking) with TrackIR support.
Track IR would be an easier solution than padlock but that's just me. The implementation is free and with the work they did for VR it wouldn't be that hard
