The shortcut tab for star chart purgers and flux probes, can we include alarm sentries?
I know it's not a bright idea for the top guys, but what do you guys think?

It would be if it was fast and easily accessible.

If you put too many artifacts on the "quick button" it starts to defeat the purpose of having a quick button. The only things that should be put on there right now are the 2 fluxes.

And when in the middle of a battle, most people put on buffs anyway so it's just a bit more scrolling.

And when in the middle of a battle, most people put on buffs anyway so it's just a bit more scrolling. Because when people run flux probes on their better planets, they might just like to flux stuff that has been scanned. Meanwhile, there are so many planet buffs/traps that to include the alarm sentry by rights you should also have the ion repulsor, both drannik traps, the exo-rift, the sentries, abysmal rift, etc etc etc... If you're wanting to set the trap or whatever while your planet is being attacked, you're better off in the main list anyway because you need longevity serums, cloning pods and the Guard button too. Now do you see what I mean about clogging the quick button? _________________Ranks 400+ Join us in exploring..[20:40] Wredz: just hacked a massive extremely rich minting planet from someone.. thats the best planet i ever hacked [20:43] DarthFlagitious: is it spearmint or peppermint?

Now do you see what I mean about clogging the quick button? Yes I know, planetary buffs are a bad idea to have there. I never said that. What I was implying was how come you can't press an extra couple of buttons to flux a planet, purgers and probes were only added because they're commonly used in mass amounts. While fluxes are not used in anywhere near as much quantity.

I wish the shortcut bars was customizable, you know select which artifacts to put in the tab.
There should be shortcut buttons when pvping to use TMs and artifacts etc, same with NPCing, A shortcut button for containment cage would be nice
