Wish list for iPad

Apr 21, 2013 Cromwell link
Here some things I want to have:

-Possibility to switch the controls for steering and fire, so that you can steer left side and fire right side.
-Ships with CANFAC System/Module(s):D --> Computer aided Navigation Flight and Combat
What does that mean?

Using the iPad to play VO it is harder than with mouse and a keyboard.
So I would like to have a ship which overtakes some of the task you normally have to do yourself.
Like when you are in a fight your CANFAC module shoots OR steers for you while you fly or shoot.
How good this module do so depends on its tech level or maybe it could be possible that you can program these modules by yourself, too eg a special attack/escape maneuver, so that the effectiveness of the modules depends on your own SKILL to program it.
And if you think even further it could be possible to sell these routines to other players.
Furthermore it navigates for you. You enter the destination where you want to go and the CANFAC module do the rest eg steering, using wormholes, docking etc...
I think there could be many more uses for such modules. One additional idea could be that, depending on the ship type/ships computer mainframe etc, it is only possible to add a certain amount of modules, so that you have to decide which you want to use.
Ok, that is it for now, maybe more later!:)

So, basically whoever writes the best aimbot wins? lol

We have autofire and autoaim which, on some good weapons (like Gauss Cannons and the Gatling Turret) will aim halfway across the screen to hit your target. In some aspect, this does exist in the game already. There's a balance to it though. Weapons with good AutoAim are heavy.

The touch controls definitely need more configurability though... It'd be great if the analog fields and buttons could be bound to arbitrary game functions like joystick axes and buttons can on the PC client.

Never mind now .. IOS 7 should have 3rd party controller support when it comes out.. No need for the jailbreak. Now I just have wonder what controllers will be covered, and if need be, will VO add support.
