Mumble is mostly used in two situations: PvP and Classes. In PvP it is very useful because, for example, it is faster to call out a primary target than to type it, especially with PvP related lag. In classes it is great as well because we do not want our poor instructors getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from typing everything. In effect, it is just a lot easier and faster than typing.

This part of the Mumble setup guide focuses on setting up your key shortcuts for the structured fleet channel, currently named ZZ Alpha Fleet. This is used only really for large scale PvP&nbsp;operations (e.g. multiple wings or fleets), so <span style="color:#FFFF00">unless you are expecting to join a huge fleet of hundreds of unistas, you can probably skip this bit for now</span>.<br>

E-UNI fleets will use four distinct "channels" (these are not real channels as such but the concept helps to understand the difference between the actions behind different hotkeys).

In short, the structured fleet channels enable great streamlining and filtering of information. This way, fleet commanders can focus on leading the fleet rather than having to process endless streams of information and squad members and their commanders can coordinate more efficiently amongst themselves. On the other hand, all this requires a great deal more communication and discretion in doing so from SC’s to the rest of command.

The import wizard will then ask for the filename of the certificate you want imported. First Save As: https://www.startssl.com/certs/ca-bundle.crt in whatever folder you want then link it to the import tool. follow the wizard's instructions and "Voila" you now should be able to use Mumble
