Feature Wish List

[Stormrider_FTL]

1. Remember the Ship name as a game option.

2. Remember the Crew names as a game option.

3. Crew to auto-return back to their assigned station after a battle if at full health.

4 New crew able to be renamed or SHIFT-Mouse.over to see skills even in a battle.

more later and now a bit of text to say why I would like to see this feature setup.
1,2,3 would save a lot of time and work after battles or on game restarts. I learned to hate, I mean really HATE all the time wasted in some games like EQ-one and others waiting for ships or grinding faction. Also, 1,2 would have to be something that would work for each ship type, as some ships start with more or less crew.
Also, 3,4 would save time and work in being sure that the crew that is leveling up a set of skills ( like skill with weapons or pilot ), as it is now I have to wait till after the battle or I have to remember/write down on paper the names/skills of the different crew.

None of the above would change the play bal. or make the game less of a true test of your playing skill.
I do love the game and really like the perma-death you set up, because this makes every choice mean a lot.

I'll try to post more, later, if my brain cells can mob up and come up with another thought.
GL-HF all.

Stormrider.

Definitely in favor of number 3. A simple set battle stations option would be nice.

Resolution options, dear god some resolution options

Here's a simple one:

Random ship selection

For me it gets boring playing with the same ship over and over again. I'd be nice to have the game pick for me.

I was logging in to suggest naming options whenever new crew members arrive or are hired, which I saw someone else had made.

I also like the idea of starting a game with a random ship, which saw reading through the suggestions.

-Being able to sell missile/drone ammo

-Having every location CONNECT to another one and not dead end, thus having to backtrack.

-More variation during store visits, it seems like I see the same old upgrades time after time.

-Having every location CONNECT to another one and not dead end, thus having to backtrack.

But guessing which beacons will have connections is part of the strategy. You can see the entire sector from the start, and you can usually make reasonable guesses about what will be in range of where. It forces you to make decisions about which locations are more important, whether you think you can reach a place in time, etc. If you play it safe, it's never a problem, so I don't have any complaints.

-More variation during store visits, it seems like I see the same old upgrades time after time.

Maybe I have different luck than you, but I find the stores to be pretty varied. Of course, they all sell fuel, drones, missiles and have repair facilities, but aside from that it seems fairly random. You can find drones, augmentations, weapons and crew of any variety.

MORE GUNZ AND SYSTEMS

Plus maybe the developers can have some cross overs with other games(Sins of a solar empire maybe )
