The new Star Base Button

Post by Toonces » Sat Jul 19, 2014 11:52 am

Have you tried out the new "Quick Re-Ship" button in Starbases? What do you think of it?

It's supposed to save a bunch of clicks by letting the port merchant outfit your ship for you, which seems especially important in blitz style games.

Yes Yes Yes and please also make the hotkeys work like the ports, buying shields and nukes/negs is so time consuming especially during a space fight or invading. Being able to do the same thing in a StarBase like F4 does in the ports would be great.

It would be handy if the player can set the hotkey to buy a ship of their choice, max out shields and buy a full load of nukes/negs.

The other possibilities other then reshipping is a large amount of hotkey combos. Anything that gets us player back in the game faster is a win/win for everybody. Some things about this game are monotonous and spoil the fun.

Good addition to the game. Less clicks means more playing.

Yup one of the better idea`s is a handy tool for sure !

MAYBE :idea: a one click button in ports to return to nearest star base to match your rep +/- to reship would be an advantage too .

( for the price of some fuel of course)

It would cancel out the need to pod suicide to get to sol which I always thought was a negative in the game anyhow.
