Post 2.4 Core Gameplay Improvements : Quality Of Life

[ChrisT]

As we are all discussing what might happen post 2.4, in what we might call for now "Season 3", though I understand the season model may be replaced with another. But still, it will be a tranche of work that will probably last for say a year. And so within that period, lets discuss a single topic within this thread.

Just some points

• Please keep your comments here on topic, so no drifting off onto Exploration, or Quality of Life enhancements.
• Please be as verbose as you can, fully explain what you would like to see Added, Remove or Tweaked,and WHY, benefits?
• Please be civil and positive, you may not agree with ideas, but lets discuss it, not devolve into an A vs B slanging match...

Quality Of Life

It's been mentioned before but please can my NPC crew member appear as Holo-him on the bridge. His holo-him can get kicked out if ever I use Multicrew. As a QOL feature there need be no extra pips etc.

I'd also like to be able to adjust interior lighting on a slider (or dimmer switch analogue)

Edit: Oh and the ability to buy blank editable textures for ship paint jobs and decals that we can create our own designs on and upload.

Superb Idea, that way we only have to pay him or her their cut when they are actually working, which would also solve a lot of complaints about this particular issue.

For me I'd like a 10 second warning on supercruise to destination. A little bleep or siren that goes of when you are ten seconds from the station, planet or mysterious signal as appropriate thus preventing any need for the loop of shame.

EDIT - plus a little lamp icon in the HUD that lets me know if my lights are on or off. If I can see the lamp icon I know that they are on.
