Version 1.4.6 Release Notes
Dementio:
To be fair, if you really want somebody to be on the same team as you, there is a crew formation. Matchmaking's job is to create balanced lobbies, which is difficult with a low playerbase, switching around destroys the balance. Swap slot is still possible though and is a more fair solution, as the other person has to accept the shift of balance created by swapping around.

Except the part where there is literally no reason to matchmaking beyond 'lets get these players in a game asap' which is perfectly fine and working as intended.

Gunner tutorial:
How to spam V commands at pilot - Vital
The existence of range as one of the most important aspects of the game - Meh, they'll figure it out on their own
Richard LeMoon:
Stop thinking like a person that knows how to play the game with people that know how to play the game. Communication is more important than range to novices, especially to pilots. Shooting before you are in range is much less of a problem than guns not being in arc.
From what I gather (and strongly suggest), there may be more advance training/challenge modes focusing on different aspects of the game. This intro is just general stuff. A range specific training challenge (for each gun even) would be much more conducive to good gameplay than jamming it into a short tutorial that most people will just want to skip.
Daft Loon:
Advanced training modes would be great, but it wouldn't be a huge addition to have a brief mention of range in the initial gunners tutorial. It could be as simple as one target spawning further away and a prompt to use lesmok ammo to hit it, which would double as an introduction to the effects of one of the main ammo types.
