In-flight action groups

[TheCosmicOwl]

Having built a large space station it is both annoying and time consuming to control each docking port manually, and each solar panel as there are many. It would be beneficial to have the option to create action groups while the space station is in orbit. This way you could control solar panels with the press of a button.

it has already been suggested plenty of time

The mod answers your question, get the mod.

Also I fully suggest you standardise your action groups in the VAB as standard practise. For example (mine):

1: solar panels toggle

2: fairings/deploy-when-out-of-atmospheres (antenna ect)

3. docking ports

4: toggle engine operation (craft dependent - for example: toggle front and rear engines)

5-7: mission specific

8: staging/decoupling (docking ports-all)

9: Parachutes/second-abort-sequence (Lander legs, final decoupling of LES

This means when you dock your parts to your space station you dont have to worry about reconfiging everything. and there is no worry that you've done it wrong and if you press 1 one of your decouplers will go due to an old grouping you forgot to change.
