Early Access version 45.2

[GuestUniverse]

I want to bring back the controversial question about the slightly annoying player-suggested feature “should we automatically mount only equipment of its type?” (I posted it above, but it was ignored and forgotten)

@GuestUniverse

I don’t think automatically mounting only one available option should be applied. It is strange and unusual, and for example:

A player (like me) who has the habit of never use satellites in missions so they don’t buy any satellites. But then a new satellite available and that player buys it just to see how it works, but never plans to use it officially.

I know that player could simply manually remove the one satellite from their plane, but sometimes they may go to the fleet just to see all plane equipment they have (for example to see which rare equipments are missing), so I think this player suggested feature isn’t really helpful, not worth changing the original mechanic just for one exception.

Ok, this auto-mounting has tripped me up, too (because it’s hard to know in advance whether selecting a mounting slot will automatically mount an item or not, so you tend to instinctively re-select the item, and inadvertently unmounting it). So, poll time:

Do you want automatic mounting?

Therefore, my answer is no (also because of the additional reason iA stated).

Also, I think that waiting the game to load by the “mouse loading bar” may affect gameplay quality. It should be reverted to the original loading bar a few versions ago.
