Better handling of [foo] batteries, hypos, shield charges

A suggestion: Some of the more common drops are items like engine batteries, weapon batteries, hypos, shield charges, etc. If I have a stack of (for instance) weapon batteries equipped on my ship, it is an annoyance to have to manually add these things into the stack.

Would it be possible for the game to check, when picking up items, if one has a stack of said items equipped on one's ship or character-- and, if so, to add the newly picked up loot to said stack?

    I noticed something yesterday when I was buying stacks of hypos.

    In the old Season 1, I would equip some large hypos for example and if I picked up another one it would go in my inventory and I'd have to manually equip it once the ones I was holding were used up. Or manually add it to the stack I already had equipped.

    Yesterday, I tried it after getting Season 2, I noticed that after I equipped a stack of hypos, the rest in my inventory were also being counted in the little counter in my power tray as well! That's either something new or something I didn't notice before. i.e. it showed a combined total for the hypos I had equipped and the ones in my inventory.

    I'm going with something you havent noticed before as I saw this a while back, one thing I meant to check was if drag and drop to the hotbar was actually really there like I thought I discovered on tribble.
