People may not have paid attention to that part of the update - logic systems can now be triggered from the action bar. This means any unorthodox ship constructs like drone racks , disintegrator torpedoes or plexdoor webs can be easily activated in the middle of combat , without stopping your evasive manoeuvers.
More importantly , you can link any number of weapon or utility systems to a single button on your action bar. Shield drains , stop effect and conventional weapons (except for rapidfire) can be toggled on and off , possibly right out of cloak. Assuming you can spare the energy , you're free to charge your jump drive while gunning enemies down. Turret-less ships can now hoard all the utility modules without having to worry about AI targeting.
Combine remote blocks with wireless blocks , and you can arrange simultaneous volleys from your swarm of drones.
