- Allow heavy weapon points to be used as light weapon points as well. This makes sense, doesn't it?
Easily moddable, actually.
- Hotkey, select nearest cargo pod within radar range.
i I think?
- Ctrl+key combo to cycle through targets in your viewing range only. Ie, not behind you.
Would be nice.
- Random news entry when an accident occurs. "Early this morning, the Yorkshire system was in shock as rescue parties rushed to the third planet, where the Abbidonian Battleship Ses'thene impacted at high velocity. Estimated casualties are in the tens of thousands. Officials expect no survivors of the Ses'thene's 400-strong crew."
heh, heh. Evil.
- Make proximity to a star potentially lethal. Should slowly drain shields, then boil off your armor with exponentially increasing speed as it drops to zero percent. That, and/or make your/his/her ship easier to hit, being backlit and all.
- Provide ship name+Hitpoints overlay on main viewscreen. This could be set to on by holding down TAB (or whatever). Make locating ships/items easier.
- Directional arrows at the side of the screen indicating where your current target is
Very useful.
