Hello,

Actually we have a shortcut to mass lock in space: Ctrl + mouse drag in space.

But this is locking: Spaceship, collidable object & wreck.

Can we improve this, by allowing player to lock only spaceship ?

This feature doesn't even work for me. Locks things outside the box i make more than it does inside.

But locking only ships makes sense.

Checklist toggle (maybe bind it to one of your overview tabs) for what the cursor drag catches would be nice.

Which causes me to wonder if the mechanic is acting the way it is intended, in other words to make it harder for you to lock the pod because you have to sort it out of the clutter.

Perhaps a better way to deal with this would be to allow for a multiple selection on the overview tabs that way you could group lock whatever you can set up an overview tab for. No I have never tried to lock multiple targets at the same time via the overview, I have never been in a situation where I needed or wanted to soi this may be possible now.

Probably be easier to just tie it to overview settings
