If you have not done that yet, go here first: https://wiki.pleaseignore.com/it:auth . If API keys are not flagged, try refreshing your API key.

 You will then be logged into the TEST Mumble Server. We recommend you bookmark the Main Server so you can join directly from the Mumble client rather than through the web service.

+Our old two-layer architecture for Mumble fleet channels (fleet commanders and pilots) has served us well for a long time. However, it is now time for a change. By splitting fleets into three layers (fleet commanders, wing commanders and pilots) we hope to make it easier to reach the right people and reduce the noise from people in other roles that you don't want to hear. Sounds good right? Yeah, I thought so. There's only one problem: You'll need to make some slight changes to your Mumble hotkeys.

 ==== The keys to success ====
-In the old system, everyone had up to three keys, and they were as follows:
+We're have increased the total number of keys to //four//. If you're not an FC, you will have up to three of these. The new keys are as follows:
-  * <del>**Whisper key**: Your local key speaks to people in your channel and FCs cannot hear it, so it's perfect to talk unimportant shit with your fleet members.</del>
-  * <del>**Shout key**: You use this to speak to the entire fleet; line members and FCs alike can hear what you say when you press this button.</del>
-  * <del>**Global key**: This one was for FCs only, and it allowed them to talk to FCs in other fleet channels.</del>
-We're increasing the total number of keys to //four//. If you're not an FC, you
-will have up to three of these. The new keys are as follows:
-  * **Local key**: Same as the old whisper key (which people also called the local key). It speaks to your subchannel only and it perfect for unimportant shit.
+   * **Local key**: Same as the old whisper key (which people also called the local key). It speaks to your subchannel only and it perfect for unimportant shit.
   * **Fleet key**: This key will speak to the entire fleet. Use it with care and don't use it to talk about things that are not important.
   * **Speak-upward key**: This will speak to your direct superior and any of their direct subordinates. In other words, if you're a mainline DPS pilot, this key will speak to the DPS wing commander and any other DPS pilots. Use with discretion.
   * **Speak-downward key**: For FCs only. This will speak only to your direct subordinates.

 ==== Who hears what ====
-**If you are a mainline pilot...**
+**Pilots...**

+  * Use your //local key// to speak to your current sub, the people around you, but not the FC.
+  * As a mainline DPS pilot, use your //fleet key// to speak to the entire fleet (generally referred to as Global key). Pilots should use this key to reply to the DPS FC.
+  * As a specialised wing pilot (logi, tackle, capital, etc use your //speak-upward key// to speak to your Wing FC and any other pilots in your wing. (reply to questions, scouting etc).
-**If you are a wing commander...**
+{{:it:mumble_dpsmember_diagram.png?nolink&800}}
-  * Pressing your //local key// will whisper only to wing commanders in the same wing.
-  * Pressing your //fleet key// will whisper to the entire fleet.
-  * Pressing your //speak-upward key// will whisper to all fleet commanders and wing commanders
-  * Pressing your //speak-downward key// will whisper to everyone in your wing.
-**If you are a fleet commander...**
+{{:it:mumble_wingmember_diagram.png?nolink&800}}
-  * Pressing your //local key// will whisper to all fleet (but not wing) commanders.
-  * Pressing your //fleet key// will whisper to the entire fleet.
-  * Pressing your //speak-downward key// will whisper to all fleet commanders and wing commanders.
+**If you are a Main DPS FC...**
-{{:it:mumble_channel_diagram.png|}}
+  * Use your //speak-upward key// for command comms at all times; this includes all other FCs and Wing FCs.
+  * Use your //fleet key// to talk to the entire fleet, including Wing FCs.
+  * Don't use your //speak-downward key//. (If DPS FCs use their speak down key, none of the other Wing FCs will be able to hear what is going on)
-=====Etiquette=====
+{{:it:mumble_dpsfc_diagram.png?nolink&800}}
-Outside of setting up and using the right keys, there is some other [[training:comms_etiquette|etiquette to keep in mind.]] Following some of the basic etiquette on Mumble will go a long ways towards making fellow Testies not hate you.
+**If you are a Wing FC…**
+Wing FCs are pilots coordinating specialized wings i.e. Logistics Command, or Tackle, or Capitals, etc.
+  * Use your //speak-upward key// for command comms; this includes all other FCs and Wing FCs.
+  * Use your //fleet key// to speak to the entire fleet. (generally referred to as Global key)
+  * Use your //speak-downward key// to speak to everyone in your specialized wing.
+  * Use your //local key// to speak only to other wing commanders immediately next to you, in the same wing.

-If you are deaf, Please let the FC know, or just let people in fleet chat know, so that they can relay orders from Mumble to fleet chat for you.
