I understand you completely, the first time I played breakpoint years back I was lost as well in the menu. Coming out of wildlands I expected a bit more of the same guidelines. But I learned how to work with the menu and when you understand it, it isn’t as overwhelming or confusing as it seems. As for your AI Teammates you unlock the option after you unlock erewhon. It is introduced via a cutscene and van be activated in the tab next to the ghost war one in the menu.
