Ship UI:
The ship user interface will display key information to the player such as fuel quantities, mass, part count, etc. The ship UI will also have a separate hotbar which can socket the different weapons and functions on the ship. The ship UI should also have a tab menu system allowing the player to access deeper functions gathered from parts on the ship, such as radar and automatic weapon targeting. Supply Drop / Pod Events:
These events should occur periodically where a supply drop or pod will crash on asteroids or planets. The supply drop / pod can be looted for gear and resources. Energy Shield Projectors:
New parts that will project an energy shield in a set direction and range. Shield will draw energy from on board batteries. Shields can be adjusted in power to respond to incoming threats. Seeking Missile System:
Missiles and their respective launchers will work in several different ways. The seeking missile system will add the various means for seeking missiles to track their targets, be it laser guided, heat seeking or radar signature. This system will also include countermeasure systems for missile avoidance. Radar System Integrated with Guided Projectile System:
The guided projectile system is meant to be used directly with radar overlays. Players should be able to view their radar, choose targets from their radar, and set navigation way-points for certain guided projectiles such as torpedoes. Vertical Divider

Community/Local Servers:
Players should be able to host their own games using their local machine or a dedicated server. Players should be able to control whether their hosted games are private, password protected and have access to additional server settings. Consumables:
There is currently no way to heal your character or recharge your suit energy/fuel levels. Consumable items will be added that can be crafted to serve this purpose. Better Weapon Targeting:
Currently weapons fire from the weapon towards the cursor. This setup functions but can be better. Weapons should be changed to prioritize hitting objects/terrain under at the cursor’s position. Station Anchoring System:
The station anchoring system will allow a player to fix their station to a specific location, whether is be on an asteroid, planet or a set point in space. There will be various different parts used depending on the location. For instance ground anchors will be used on asteroids and planets to secure the station, but in a point in space a thruster control unit will need to be installed, which will automatically fire thrusters to counteract undesired position changes. Docking:
Docking will be like the maglock system. Additionally it will allow ships that are docked together to share resources such as fuel and electricity, and send control commands back and forth. Vertical Divider
