Hi, sometimes I am away from my PC and cannot enjoy flying around and blasting AI. But there are a lot of other things I like to do in game too. Obviously chatting is fun.
Colony Economy, Base Item Building and Trade Slaves. This is all persistent in game even when my avatar is parked. What about a mobile interface to these elements?
Please consider a mobile app that would allow me to check on my bases and modify settings in the construction and trade bays. Perhaps extending it to trade slave programming?

This would be great. To extend the idea a bit, it should be possible to check on and modify your trade slaves and bases remotely while you are in game as well. We've seen a bit of progress on this with remote inventory access but there's still a lot of work to be done.

If they can't code for a delete button for posts on forums they sure as hell won't be able to code for an app like that.

They can't even put in 6th characters yet for gods sake, fraid I'm pretty sure this isn't even possible for our feeble devs.

I'm not against it, I just don't see them being able to do anything like this at all.

been suggested 1566273 times, still a good suggestion

Its way too over powered so thats why i sign it!
/signed!!

Why overpowered? I am not suggesting additional automation. I am suggesting the ability to play from another terminal type. Or is it that you are most concerted about remote control? So, in a mobile app you would be able to jump from base to base without needing to spend the travel time?

You could always code travel time in...

That would be so dumb. At the very least you should be able to check the status and inventory of your bases, and probably also modify the trading bay. I really see no problem with being able to edit slave orders as well.

At that point though, there's no reason to play the game. You could literally just manage slaves and bases remotely, which gives no incentive to even login. I'm not sure how i feel about complete remote automation.

An App that allows players to:

- Send messages from in game to other players, whether in game or not.

- Basic Checkup of all owned property from a set log snapshot(specific time)

- Built in and working Webchat for communicating to team(if player has one)*


Last one might need to be its own program, or whatever is needed.

Obviously it would only work if you were subbed. If the only reason you pay your sub is to manage slaves and bases, I don't really mind if you can do that without actually flying around.

Also, things like bringing slaves out of stasis, reading black boxes, and starting construction projects would likely have to be done in person.

I've played games that have done this. The games make it so that anything that can be done remotely, can be done at least 3x faster ingame.
