Voice Activation; staging, action groups.

[jros83]

I would like to suggest that Squad take a genuine look at the efficacy and practicality, both on their end as programmers and our end as users, of integrating voice activation in the future.

I know that's by no means easy. Limitations are obvious, not the least of which being how many languages are enough.

Thoughts?

Neat idea, but this is one of those things that would probably be better handled by a third-party program:

Examples from quick googling:

BTW: They don't really need to understand the language, just the sound of the word. You could use random syllables.

Jebediah: Kiri, activate the next stage

Kiri: Ok, I've engaged the landing gear.

Cool idea, but I don't think I would use it very often. There used to be a mod that did this. Not sure if it's updated to 1.0.5 though.
