Fix the skill bars

I see that it's the 4th anniversary of Star Trek and still note that you still haven't fixed the skill bars.

Pick up a random consumable device for your ship? Gain a new skill through gear/levelling? Just equipped a new weapon to your ship? Let's paste those skills into your skill bar for you, over existing skills.

Want to change ship? Ok lets jumble all your skills about so that you have to manually reset them every time you decide to fly anything different.

Same goes for Ground skill bars though it's not half as bad, admittedly.

After 4 years, little bugs like this should not exist. Please do something about it. It's important for you to do it for yourselves too... some of us have bought a lot of ships and are afraid to use them because we know that there is a good chance that if we do, this will happen.

Yes my skill tray is locked, before you ask. Makes no difference. Maybe now is the time to wind down from new content just a little to fix silly little problems like this.

    Yes this annoys the hell out of me, especially when changing ship and I have to spend 5 min rearranging it all again.

    I have to agree. I really dislike having to rebuild my trays almost every time I switch ships. Especially since I use keybinds and I have to take great care to rebuild my trays exactly the way my keybinds call on them.

    Currently, I only have one character, a Tactical Officer, and I Fly a Fleet Avenger; As I had not too long ago bought the Life Long Subscription, the Chimera became available to me. I spent resources to buy the Fleet Chimera, only to mothball the Fleet Chimera because of the tray problem.

    I was hoping the new quick load system in season 8.5 might fix the problem, but alas, it does not. So, I think I'm going to have to create and level up a new Tac officer for each tac ship I want to fly. This is an unhappy thought because I can't transfer my Fleet Chimera to any new character I create, so I'm going to have to spend resources to buy it again for a new tact officer.

    Then there's the new science destroyer which looks cool (ability-wise not appearance-wise) I don't like the idea of creating a new character today, level it up to 50 and work at getting the new ship. I might not make it. The event may be over before I get the ship. So, I'm getting it for my current character, even though I will likely mothball it due to the same problem with the trays. So I guess I have to hope it will be available somehow after the event is over so I can make a character for it.

    50 ship slots? No, thank you. Until the tray problem is fixed, which seemingly is not even on the radar, one ship slot is enough per character for me.

    Spread the word: Cryptic are notorious for not caring what players think - hence why these beta-style bugs exist. They aren't going to care unless enough people say something. I want to use my other ships without a headache!

    This as supposed to be fix with the ship and spec switching feature released with season 8.5.
    Since 8.5 is live we know it didn't happen it's obvious that "party patrol" was more important then essential features of the actual games that should have been here 4 years ago...

    Ship switching is absolutely pointless with randomly rearranging hotbars.

    Plus, im tired of removing skills from my skill bar that i dont want the to be there. Everytime switch sectors, there they are again. But again, the most important things are the ones that will never be fixed, for really alien reasons. :mad:

    I said time ago in some posts, that i was afraid that cryptic launched the new hybrid ships without being resolved the skills try problem. I cant imagine the pain in the xx that will be to have the hybrid ship with these problems still there. Just chaos.

    I loged on to the game for the 1st since the buged season 8.5 to find all 5 chars space power trays had messed up ive not changed any thing on a single ship.
    For 1 of my chars it was the 2nd time in a week the new season was post to fix this problem i belive. Because if not adding new ship swap is a waste of time and man power.

    It's also incredibly annoying when the game puts a couple of random bridge officer skills into the hotbar. I keep removing them but they keep coming back.
