Auto shoot and collecting

[Divine Spirit]

Hi Devs,

would it be possible you implement blueprints for auto selecting, shooting and collecting which can be bought for gold only. Thing is when I play several hours your lovely game my left hand elbow joint hurts as *****.

Now. Here is proposition how it could be done once blueprints bought, produced by cryonite and installed on ship:

Auto select: RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON which select only nearest most dangerous target or target that already attacks ship with lowest health as priority.
Quote: TAB button select nearest target only, so it is not helpful when instead interceptors it selects harvester or some other target that disturbing serenity of the mission goal.

Auto shoot: DOUBLE CLICK to 1 (fire icon) or CTRL + 1 to set auto shoot and by selecting enemy ship opens fire.
Auto harvest: DOUBLE CLICK to 2 (collector icon) or CTRL + 2 to set auto collecting by selecting item or mineral.

To turn off features just DOUBLE CLICK on icon again or CTRL + icon (also when auto mode is active icons should change color shade so we know auto mode is active or not)

Now when we speak about quick menu button order, it would be nice if you implement customization of that same icon order.

Tnx for reading.

I must add how keyboard control is poorly performed. It is really annoying when I select target and click with mouse cursor some other direction at the map, target selection deselects.

By my opinion playing game should be enjoyable experience not torture. Some players at the General chat sad how if everything is automatic why bother to play. I disagree.

Game play command system is one thing and tactic is another. Also there is no keyboard mapping. I would prefer to use for left and right Q and E instead A and D keys.

Anyhow. Please do something about this matter in whole.

Tnx.

It is really annoying when I select target and click with mouse cursor some other direction at the map, target selection deselects.

Left click on target: selects and follows target
Right click on target: selects without following

Left click on anything else: unconditional move (deselect the target)
Right click on anything else: keep selection and move (stop following)
