I would REALLY REALLY like to see an easier way to overheat / turn off overheat for individual modules. Its very hard to try to click on that little green line in the heat of battle, especially if you are managing overheat on multiple modules. Most of the times i miss click and the module does not overheat or does not turn off and I end up burning it out.
What I would like to see would be a much WIDER line on the top of the module icon, or some other easier to click hot spot and to make it RED when its overheated. Green when its not. It sort of makes sense.
Another issue is the way modules are shown as overheated or not. If the module is cycling as overheated and you click the green line to turn off overheat, there is no way to tell if your click worked or not and turned off the overheat. You wont know until the next cycle begins, which is stupid because that one cycle may burn it out. We need new indicators as follows.
1. Overheat Off - Faded Green color as it it is now 2. Overheat On and Next Cycle overheat is active - Solid Bright Stoplight RED 3. Overheat On and Next Cycle overheat is deactivated (like i mentioned above) - Flashing RED. The soft kind of flashing, with gradual darkening and lighting. This indicates that overheat has been deactivated and the next module cycle will be normal.
Please please fix this! Thanks!
PS. No im not interested in the opinion of the "Its fine the way it just, just pay more attention and lean to be more accurate with your mouse. Improvements are bad for harcore players like us" people... |

CTRL + Click (on a module) to toggle overheating. Or another modifier than CTRL. |

If you had a modifier like that for overheating, it'd be SHIFT-click to keep with the existing conventions... |

Shift + Click (or Shift + activate module with F1-F8) was toggle overheat 2 years ago, but CCP changed and brought this to an end. They ruined this great function too. I don't know why. |

It probably had to do with grouping guns, since that uses SHIFT-drag. Easy fix: use a different control for grouping. (BTW: Shift+module shortcut still works) |

Don't limit yourselves to thinking only ctrl, alt, and shift work as modifiers.
If you're looking at a gate, you can D + click it to jump. (edit: the object in space, not in the overview listing)
H + click for heat? Just saying it's a possibility. |
