Suggestion - Route Autopilot or Crew Piloting

It would be good now that we have NPC crew if we could select the crew member (or just an autopilot - these are sci-fi ships they should have that by now!) to take control and do jumps up to the maximum route plot of 1000lys. E.g. at the end of a few hours playing I'd like to plot a route and set my crew to take me there, pay them say 1mil credits for 1000lys and log off. Next time I log on I'd be at the destination (assuming an hour or two had passed) otherwise on logging back in earlier I'd be at some point along the route.

This would make it less grindy and makes more logical sense/realistic from an immersion point of view.
 
No. But really what you're asking for is the game playing itself. Why not order 10 tonnes of Painite in addition? Not to be too sarcastic, but going places in Elite is most of the essence of the game.

I'm very fine with ordering your ships to be moved, but not to be flown.
