The possibility to save different ship loadouts, firegroups and module priorities (and to equip them with a button press if they're stored at your current location) would be a great feature and it has been raised probably dozens of times (and can't be raised often enough). A few threads all about the loadout request (there are probably quite a few more I haven't found):
Fdev, it would be great if you could listen to your customers and implement this feature.

Just a few arguments:
- our time is valuable. Especially for players with a full time job and family. Sitting in a dock and changing your loadout and firegroups for the 20th time from one role to another isn't fun.
- more playtime with your friends. Quite a few times a friend came spontaneously online and we wanted to go bounty hunting in a res site. Instead of a simple button press at my home station where all my modules are stored, I need to fiddle around with outfitting to change the equipment of my Conda. Valuable coop playtime lost every time.
- "Purchase another Ship" isn't a good argument. Again our time is valuable. Not every player has so much spare money and time to buy and equip several ships, especially if you have engineered modules you don't want to do that twice or even more often.
Thanks for listening.
The collection for requested autopilot is surely a little bit larger
And just because people use everytime a new thread instead the existing ones, it doesn't mean that it has more value. It just showes that people can't use the search function of the forum
IMO people should just buy another ship instead. The ship itself isn't that expensive, mostly the modules are the big part of the costs.since we don't have any real credit sinks, people become rich, richer and even more rich than ever before.
So....just buy another ship
It just showes that people can't use the search function of the forum
Maybe what you should do is look at each and every one of topics Nerix has posted, Its not a hot topic. There only one that seems to have anyone talking. It has 40 posts. Most topics about the same subject has less than 10 posts and some even less than 5 most have 3 with the Op posting on a few of them.No, it shows that people might not necessarily want to re-heat old threads or might want to put their own spin on the idea. Or that we've reached a point when another generation of players came over, looked at some feature and thought: ?. It also shows there is a genuine demand and need behind this idea.
