Hello Devs,
Feedback from a relatively new player on the interface at stations/missions:
Station/Mission interface:
1- Please put a VISIBLE warning in passengers that have wanted status. I just lost my ship being blown up at exiting the station all because the MF'ing passenger was wanted..and NOWHERE in the passenger info did it say anything about that. It even said the target was low value/priority. If a passenger is wanted then add a damn 'WANTED' red banner to his picture or somewhere in the text.
2- When selecting a passenger mission and you don't have the cabin type installed... you can't see where the passenger is going to in the mission list. This makes it incredibly frustrating to have to click on every single mission you dont have a passenger cabin type for just to see its destination. Its simple and common sense to browse missions first, see which go to the same location and then equip the ship and grab the missions.
Ship Interface:
3- Joystick throttle: Please change the forward/reverse throttle system.. instead of having the throttle go into reverse, make it be full forward or full reverse and add a hotkey to switch between fore and reverse thrust....or at least make it an option to switch between the current one and this one. It is very irritating to slide the throttle to the exact location to go to zero thrust because in some sticks its very narrow/sensitive and you end up drifting fore or aft. Even more annoying for those using the lever throttle in the joystick itself (not a HOTAS but all in one stick).
Galactic & System Map interface:
4- In VR for some reason the map doesn't 'wrap' around your view like the cockpit does. This makes it very frustrating to use and very hard to read.
5- When seeing the 'Contracts' screen in the left hand MFD, add a new button option next to 'galactic map' that simply reads 'set course' ... that way you dont have to be switching between galmap and cockpit view nonstop to go to different destinations in your missions.
