I don’t know, maybe it is a silly idea. Let us say it is a small QoL idea. Nothing fancy. Mmm, ‘kay?
Across all Starsector campaigns I have played, there was (at least) one common boring-because-uselessly-repetitive player fleet progression step.
- I have a fleet with various ships, including cruisers and maybe capitals, most of those larger non-pure-carrier ships have DTC (Dedicated Targeting Core hullmod).
- I eventually obtain ITU (Integrated Targeting Unit hullmod).
- I manually replace all (non built-in) DTC by ITU in my fleet.
So, what about an automatic DTC to ITU upgrade? (limited to non built-in DTC, of course)
Once player fleet reaches a market? Or immediately once ITU is learned, whether at a market or "outside"?
A silent upgrade? Or small notification?
Only ships in current fleet? Ships in storage too?
To put this into perspective, I should mention that I play rather short campaigns. So I do the manual upgrade much more often than someone who plays long campaigns, play time being otherwise equal.
Also, looking at this, I am assuming DTC and ITU will - in the future - keep their existing respective roles, and their existing relationship to one-another.
