1) More fighter combat pets like the scorpion please. Maybe convert the pets that come with the c-store fighters into combat pets, since those can only be launched one at a time, and have a long CD, and are faction-specific, so they are already pretty limited use. Just convert those to combat pet devices and you are done.
2) Provide sector-space access to the old STFs. In the current model, people queue into groups of exactly 5, and do space or ground, which is fine for grinding, but the old style was more interesting and offered more flexible grouping options. With sector-level accesss we could try doing them with 1-2 people, or bring the whole fleet for training, or whatever. You are already doing dual mechanisms for Nukera ground missions, so my assumption is that this is possible.
3) Please normalize the marks-per-minute rate for the different reputation systems. Some of give ~100 marks for 5 minutes, some of them give 1-5 marks for hours of running around (Romulan ground missions). Put an intern on it and have them time the missions, come up with a solid rate, and either normalize the marks or change the missions as needed.
4) I forgot #4

4) Audio levels are all over the place, and it seems that some things are always way louder than others. Weapons are always really sharp and loud. Maybe they were normalizd but weapons are "closer" to the player so they are louder? Maybe the on-board gear just needs volume reduction? Maybe everything needs to be run through a level normalizer?
5) Not all of the keybinds are documented anymore. Also, bind_save_file does not dump the default keybinds. This makes it impossible to relocate some binds, because there's no way to tell what they are, and no way to find them in the list. For example, the default uses a bind for chording the 1 and 2 mouse buttons together which causes your ship/toon to continously follow the mouse pointer around the screen, but this bind cannot be displayed using any method that I know of. Two things here, one is update the list of known binds, and two (optional after #1) include the defaults in the bind_save commands
6) Add a config option to disable camera panning on map change. It makes me nauseous.
7) Add a "Delete" button to costumes in the tailor that clears the contents of a costume slot and releases the lock on it. There is a bug with KDF costume slots that causes them to randomly become separated from the account, and they become unusable and uneditable, and adding a delte button would let us remove these damn ghost slots from our tailor screens.
8) Add BOFF Trainer NPCs to each faction starbase, and optionally add cross-faction trainers to DS9 and Drozana (similar to the cross-faction shipyard and personnel agents). I prefer to station on front-line bases but everytime I need to change up a BOFF I have to return to the home port.
9) Ditto for medical personnel. Every faction starbase has engineers who will repair your ship, but none of them have medical personnel who will repair your toon or BOFFs.
10) Add ship dimensions to the in-game database. Length, width, height. Presence data is important for certain types of combat mechanics, and right now the only way we have for judging size is to find somebody else flying the ship we are looking for and hope they stand still for a comparison. The databases in the shipyard should have this info, since they have all the other details.
11) I like how a lot of the ground markers are blue for friendly, red for hostile, but there are a few things that aren't using this scheme and they would be more useful if they did. Specifically the ground markers for things like grenades, orbital strike, mortars, etc., those should all use blue overlay markers for friendly and red for hostile.
12) Consolidate dil and rep store lists into a single store. You have tabs on the left side already... Why do I have to open paperdoll, select rep, select store, close paperdoll, when I could just click the little dil store button? All these things cost dilithium...
13) Add the Elachi rebreathers to the dil store Misc Ground Items section. The only way to get them right now is to do one of the missions, kinda irritating to have to redo it for a mandatory device. I would like to be able to buy them from the dil store if I get somewhere and find out one of my BOFFs doesnt have it.
14) All of the mission reward consumables should be bind-on-equip, rather than bind-on-pickup. Rebreathers, Deuterium, Breen Grenades, etc. Let us buy/sell on the exchange, same as we do for Jem'Hadar rifle charges and cloaking devices. Consumables should have a market on the exchange.
Thanks for reading
^Words that every player should keep in mind, especially whenever there's a problem with the game...
YES YES YES A THOUSAND TIMES YES
with a caveat: they need to add Dil rewards to all Nukara/Romulan Mark ques as well.
its frickin unfair that i have thousands of Omega marks just from grinding dil, but cant get ANY dil farming Rom or Nuka Marks
I am Il Shadow and i approve these Shennanigans!

Yes to all, with emphasis on:
#3 Yes I find this so annoying. I have a Romulan toon going through the Romulan reps and I'm find it a chore to do her reps with such a trickle of marks, yet I have a KDF toon thats doing the Nukara reps and shes already over 2000 marks from just "spider swatting" on Nukara! Now the only caveat I'd have to normalisation is bring the Romulan Mark availability up not reduce the Nukara availability! - In short remove the time gating from the Romulan patrols, missions, etc
#6 Atmospheric Assault - Do we really have to have that damn panning entry every time we respawn back into the map?? It too makes me nauseous
#7 Hell Yes! In fact please just have a massive bug fix on this whole area (like making "load costume only" actually just load the costume! - QA issue there??)
+1 to the whole post
