Once again, something needs to be done about the install/uninstall process for ship modules. Currently, it takes me 30 something clicks to uninstall or reinstall my Exotic Pulsers and Ion Pulse Ballistae when I rank up. When I add my other 2 Composite Ray modules, this number will increase slightly more. As more and more modules are created, it is gradually pushing those two items farther into the middle of the list. Composite Rays bumped both back and the Hypercharged Bane Emitters bumped the Ballistae. While I'm not advocating the elimination of all clicking everywhere, this one area... It's really getting excessive and annoying.

Several ideas were put forth a while back when this issue came up before. Including (but not limited to):
  • Renaming them so they stay at the top of the list
  • Eliminating the energy draining quality, thereby eliminating the need to uninstall/reinstall every energy refill/rank up
  • One click module layouts
  • Holding on a module page instead of refreshing to the beginning with every action

Please Dan, can SOMETHING, ANYTHING be done about this?

Discuss....

YES YES YES
actually to any of those, it dose hurt when you are about to rank or use cube/tri

The non-refresh after each click would be VERY useful

OMG, yes please. The clicking madness in that area of the game is a sure fun-sucker and a buzz-kill. I support change in that area!!!

set up saved ship load outs that just require 1 click to set up. one for leveling up, one for turning turtle, and one for attacking, would be nice if you could set up artifacts in a package for 1 click activating, say for a scan blast or for npc hunting etc etc.

I'll let the game admins decide what is best to do, but something definetly needs to be done about all that install/uninstall madness for energy.

I might not address exactly the same problem, but I also consider the repair fees for installing/uninstalling key components such as weapons and energy modules way too expensive... Hey, I know galaxy has some quantum physics and stuff, but if I uninstall a suspension on my car to replace it during a weekend for the a more suitable one for the racetrack, it wont be good for the scrapyard once I re-install it!?

The only real reason I see to have players continuously install/uninstall things is to get items to occasionally break, and need repairs. If the energy drain were removed, I would be more than willing to have a higher upkeep to compensate for the repair costs that are no longer adding up.

Big +1 to the idea.

Side note: Anyone else ever forget to put relays back on after ranking on occasion? I get so mad when I see I left them off...

i have forgot to put on relays back once, but i have forgot atleast few tens of times to take them off and have ranked with relays and Ion's on me, which is 500 energy loss... if i count all times i have forgot it, it makes i guess its some 10k energy :(

A new 'Settings' page has been added within the 'Ship' tab. This will help consolidate some of the current and upcoming player-suggested preferences.

Within the settings area, you can choose whether to allow other players to repair your ship, and select your preferred avatar picture.

If you have other ideas for things you would like to see in 'Settings' to further customize your experience, feel free to post them in the Suggestions area!


Well, Dan, here you go.

I agree with what have been suggested.

Also, I am fed up with the fact that when I install/uninstall a device, the list is reload and sorted again, sometimes differently, then I often click again on the same device that moved up or down in the list, doing the opposite action I just did. So often, I install or uninstall device by mistake.

If we have enough room, why not let us use a mark in front of the devices and use one button to mount/unmount to click once per category of device.

Darth i know you play UG , a system similar to UG module switching would be nice , just 2 extra tabs where you can place modules but they will stay as they are , just some kind of shortcut
