One feature request for photographers.

I have been lot's of times in situations when it would be really nice turn your ship lights on from srv. One thing that is annoying me is that when I have ships lights on and log out they are not on when I log back in. Countless times I have driven my srv back to ship just to turn on lights and then back out. I mean some times ship lights give you that extra feeling to pictures and that's why it's kinda importat thing, at least to me.

If it's possible now please tell me how. And if it's not possible, should it be possible? I would like it very much.

Like in this shot it would be nice to test what kind of feeling ship lights would give to the picture. But I don't want to drive back to my ship just to turn them on.

Nah man, you're not the only one intersted in this :p

But I think that, even tho it would be a nice feature for some, it's not worthy of dev time right now from Frontiers point of view.

Some basic remote control features would actually be pretty fun for gameplay too.

You could park your SRV up, then remote control your ship, and have some basic control over it, and either come and pick yourself up, fire on things, move to safety, etc.
If you fly out of "range" (instancing range), your connection is lost and autopilot takes over and flies it in to orbit.

And turn the lights on and off, of course.

Fun!

I know that UI implemented feature is not a basic one. I would be glad even for a shortcut. Basically this feature would be totally invisible just one magic key bind to turn lights on.

Would be nice to remote-control land your ship in that nice, open, flat area just 500 meters from your SRV instead of have it land 5km from you on top of that hill and then find out that hump in the ground means you can't get under the door to get picked up. +1 for me, thanks.

You can project a virtual you via holographic interfacing 500,000 LY away with no latency, and control ship systems perfectly ok.... but there's no remote control switch for ship lights 20ft away?

Ahhhrgh dang!

Repair the current live game, then yeah this would be a feature I'd like to see ingame :)

Pretty sure if FD followed the advice of everyone who said "repair the current live game" first, then no new features would ever be added because they'd be chasing round in circles constantly...
