Post Smart Scoop
Shift+ right click drag would cause slaves to scoop everything within the selected area, starting from the closest mission item, then debris and finally credits.

The area doesn't stay permanently selected -.- >.>

To OP: I do think that the scooping priorities shoudl be changed to the way yo just described, Mission Item --> Item --> Augmenters --> Credits.

Better yet, let us customise it!

You realize that most games are trying to over simplify collection of goods from defeated enemies, right? It has pretty much been universally determined that that is one of the shittier tasks in MMOs, and games like WoW are moving to mass looting(loot one corpse and it deposits everything available around it into your inventory automatically), or other games simply making it auto-deposit into your inventory the moment an enemy dies.

There is no reason why loot collection should not also be simplified in SS. Gaming works like this; you identify the fun aspects and the less fun aspects of your game, you then emphasize and refine the fun parts, finally you mitigate the drawbacks.

If you think SS shouldn't work by those exact standards, you're completely daft. This is not about afk camping and doesn't even address it, this is about simplifying one of the more annoying processes in SS. A change that can only be made for the positive.

I won't even go into the fact that virtually everything in SS is on a timer, that 98% of the playerbase is extremely familiar with, meaning that afk camping literally needs no help from this suggestion(or any other) to continue happening at maximum efficiency.

While we are at it about simplifying loot... Can we please have all credits from a single ai drop as one coin, rather then a dozen different ones?

If this happened I might actually bother scooping the random coin drops from ai. As it is, it is just too annoying to run around picking up all the individual coins.
