    Now all we need is multiple hotbars for all our logic...

    And weapon computer firing outputting a logic signal. Seriously, how am I supposed to have an accurate weapon with bonus logic abilities (fake recoil with rails, reload timer lights, etc) without it?

    Replace 1-5:
    1: Logic System "Next" selector. (You'll probably want to set up a series of logic-driven lights to see what is selected at the moment.)
    2. Logic System activator. (Fire the selected weapon system or move the selected rail.)
    3. Logic System "Previous" selector.
    4. Logic System Reset selector.
    Unless things have changed, you can't aim logic fired weapons/systems with mouse. Having cannon only firing straight in front of ship and same with missiles would drastically decrease combat effectiveness.

    Multiple hotbars, even if they had fewer user set-able buttons so that '9' and '0' cycled between them would be a welcome addition.

    If you could have separate buttons for the same primary but with differing slave systems so that you didn't have to go into build mode to slave the Ion system to the cannons or move the secondary cannon system from the primary cannon to the salvager would be down right awesome.

    And a GUI-element which shows our keyboard and which actions are assigned to which keys (by colour/symbol + letter?).

    QE,WASD => Orange when movement is available.
    YXCVBFR,1..0 => Green when single-click actions are available.
    TGZHUJIKOLP => Blue if context-enhancers are available (change context for the next key => colour/action change of all keys).
    ^ => Red to indicate you need a double-tab to escape your ship.
    ÜÖÄß => Grey to indicate dis-functionality.

    Keyboard maybe shown as a little preview somewhere in your hud. Colours either filled, just borders the char, glowing - dependent on hud skin.

    Yes, please give us that logic output on weapons firing, it is required for like all non-drone applications of this.
