I would like to see the automatic item switching  be changed to a manual switch. There have been several times in game when spamming charges at an opponent that I have launched a repair charge (or a shield) as I was out of explosives. I would much prefer to have to use the mouse wheel to choose the optional items I am using. It would be great if this could be a set-up preference in the option menu for those that might like this as it is.

From looking back at the key bindings, Mouse Scroll Wheel Up/Down does cycle between items. It doesn't keep it only at Offensive/Defensive though, it just cycles Previous and Next items, in which you can see on your cockpit's screen.

You can use the number keys now.  Before the number keys just selected the items but now they actually use the item when you press it.

Previously it did not switch... I prefer the switching alot more.

I wish 123 would switch and not use though.

Options for autoswitch items and numkeys throwing would be nice.
