Hi all, I've been playing for a couple of weeks and really enjoy the game but would love to be able to improve a few things... I hope this is the right place to mention them.
1) Improved 'mouse look'. This is my biggest wish... When holding down the right mouse button... please save the mouse position and make the mouse pointer disappear. Let the viewer move freely around in this state instead of the camera stopping when the mouse moves over an on-screen window (chat box, squad list, etc). When the right mouse button is released the pointer should then re-appear where it was to begin with.
2) Chat dialog. I would love to be able to see the chat I was having before I moved location (go to orbit, starbase, etc).
3) Ship Components. When browsing the ship components list it would be nice to see all of the component categories (Blasters, Shields, etc), and which BPs have been discovered, regardless of which type of ship is currently selected. Maybe gray-out the categories that are not able to be equipped and/or move them to the bottom of the list, but still allow the viewer to see the information. Maybe one day I will one ship of each type, but even then I would have to be in the starbase to see all the components I have explored, and it would still be inconvenient. I know the profile shows what you have found, but it's more fun to see the pictures!
That's all I can think of just now, but I'd be interested to hear what others think of these ideas.
Cheers,
Phin
