What is a Command Link and how do you create and use it?

Post by Jimmy C »

In the Blacklist menu, there are 3 tabs, Blacklist, Profile and Command. I know how to use Blacklist and Blacklist Profiles, but what are Command Links that you can create from the third tab and how to create and use them?

A command link is used to link a specific command to a blacklist profile.

so for example, you can create a profile for MK3 traders, then use the command link to link the Universe Trader to the profile.

Then when ever ship runs that command, it uses the linked profile, instead of its own (or the global one)

So that's why the tab is in the Blacklist menu. In that case, if I end the command, it also cancels the linked blacklist profile for the ship?

Yes, it only uses that blacklist while the command is running, so you can have a seperate blacklist for different commands without effecting the blacklist profile set to the individual ships
