autofire single weapon on Mac

I'm trying to autofire a single weapon on a Mac but I can't get it to work. I've tried ctrl-clicking, and I've tried every other modifier key as well, and I've tried every variation of clicks I can think of, but haven't had any luck. If it is not broken, can someone please tell me precisely what I click on in what order to make it work?

I once lost a fully maxed out boarding crew when my entire weapons platform autofired and blew up the enemy ship, rather than just autofiring my ion cannon as intended. :o

Sorry about the problem :(

That key is customizable from within the options screen. Just go to "Options" and then select "Customize Controls" and you can bind it to whatever is convenient :)

Click on the weapon, then Ctrl+Click on the room you want to shoot.

This doesn't work for me. However, it turns out that the meta key on Mac defaults to ` (back tick) rather than ctrl. I haven't had a chance yet to confirm this works, but I assume it will.

Change it in the options to whatever you like. This was added in the latest version so make sure you play the 1.03.1 version.
