Ironic statement is ironic.
Seriously?!
It's nothing at all like that, but you're not listening and it's not changing any time soon anyway. So, have fun with that.
So QoS gets sacrificed. . . for what?

After all these types of threads, I am still wondering who has a gun in the head of these people, that are so angry and seemingly forced to be here doing something they dislike with a passion.
It almost feels like you are here sorely to get angry and to spread it as far as you can. Does that job pays well?
I honestly do not get it.
Yes, the game could be better a bunch of times, it has some severe design flaws as well some weird choices and the implementation is sometimes quite clunky, but that does not entitle you to come here and force your, apparently superior point of view, in all of us and expect that, we somewhat, agree blindly. Different would be if the point came across in a polite, progressive way with an actual argument than just "I WANT".

Get rid of chaff buttons etc? No-one said this.
You specifically said having a 3rd fire button would offer no advantage over a 2 button user who has to use fire groups to reach their 3rd weapon option.
That's what I'm disputing.
I like having chaff buttons!

Agreed, but it needs fleshing out in the 'more stuff to find' department, not in the 'getting there in the first place' department. Which is, I think, what you were saying. Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong
Another pointless comment that fails to address matters at hand. I'm sorry I wasn't as easy to spin as you'd like.
There's no matter to address, despite you claiming there is.

Aye it is.
I mean if the journey is boring, let's make the journey interesting rather than bypass the journey, sort of approach . But generally that's around exploration which might be a bit out of scope (even though 50k j's was used as an example)

Cause it HURTS to see wasted potential in what could be your most favourite game ever.
Posts like those are usually come up when someone have to spend 90% session jumping or tinkering with AHK. And when you want to take some time off (off playing LOL, dont you see the point here?) going into RES with a Vulture
you find that you cannot cause you have 50 Bromelite for PA dude which system u havent yet unlocked.

The thing, each player will very probably have a different idea as to what potential the game has - who then should Frontier listen to?
Thing is, all of which I and who were before me proposed are mostly optional. Why in the world people oppose this?
This I dont get.
You saying people are not complaining about issues with the game does not make it so. Please don't derail it further.
Ok, let's take the auto-hyperjump bit as an example:
Myself and many others have taken trips out to Sag A*, Colonia, and beyond. We had to do it ourselves, without any automation. It gives a sense of having achieved something. We've worked for it.
Simply plotting the next 990 Ly and going for a cup of tea while your ship plays the game for you is, well, not playing the game.

The 'issues' you are rehashing have been brought up more than once in the past and debunked time and time and time again. The mechanics are the way they are for good reasons.
Edit: or to put it another way: just because some people are complaining doesn't make their complaints valid.

I did even wrote that autopilot should stop at unexplored system.
I myself have a lot of stars with my name only on them, never talked exploration part (EXEPT NEW FASTER(C) STAR LOADING, you probably know what I mean)
How much of that fullfillment feel you get doing ~10 trips on the same 150 ly road with a same 5 Fujin tea (tonnes lol)?

At the end of the day it's Frontier's call - and they have chosen not to implement these requested features for one reason or another.
I find it quietly satisfying.
If you want autopilot so bad, why not buy an HCS Voice-pack?
Just on the general topic of j, j, j, j.
I do think there may be scope for upping the range on some combat ships.
I mean it's hard to know what angle OP is taking on all this but given the mention of a 3rd fire button I'm going to assume it's more general flitting around the bubble looking for fights and not the true explorer role.
I think (although I may be wrong) for anyone doing actual exploration, the right solution would be to make exploration more interesting, flesh out the mechanic, rather than add the ability for players to be able to set a route to Beagle point and leave the computer running for a week. Clearly that goes down the route of undermining exploration.
On flitting round the bubble, this is actually really quick to do now with the right ship. I mean a 50LY Diamondback is within reach of anyone no with a bit of work. You can get from Shinrarta to Maia in no time at all.
What I think probably is a bit of a pain though are the true combat ships, Corvette, FdL etc.. and really if that's OP's issue then I do think a bump isn't unreasonable, picking your Corvette up from Shinrarta and doing a boat load of jumps to get to Empire space for say a bit of CZ isn't great really.
I mean there was instant ship transfer on the way wasn't there but y'know.
Anyway either way for me I don't see autopilot as a solution and (if it wasn't obvious!) I wouldn't want it in the game.

Its not exactly legal, which is infuriating.
I'm telling again, anyone can cover all but cargo issues with external software, even partial FA off part, but it break EULA, feels too stupid and immersion breaking.
The argument for fire buttons is a silly one since we can map heatsinks and chaff to fire groups OR choose a separate button.
They could allow missiles and mines a similar setup so that they are not considered a fire group but a Select-Fire weapon and not a group fire weapon.
