the idea of this post is to improve seed of lootting cargo container and salvaging wrecks.

Cargo container in range of looting (2500) would highlight simply by passing mouse on it, left clik it and it would open. And with your loot all button that would be very fast to do.

Now salvaging wrecks , most of us use target wreck and tractor beam it. So why not let us be able to when in loot range (2500)
be able to left click the salvage target icon it would open it. Simple enouph if you have better please let us know.

Since were talking of cargo container and salvage wrecks it would be cool to have something happening when it gets to loot range.

I know the only way to know if you can loot something is to check the distance, but it could highlight or something else, just a tought.

You understand the above post indicates i m a left click lover so please try to give it to us but keep the right click menu for those who love right click.

I ve got an idea for very fast salvaging.

when you re in your ship right click your salvager. There would be a line saying this " salvager automatically open cargo container " activate or disactivate. Here we will choose activate.

What does it do, lets put it in a senario.

i have 20 wrecks to salvage, i ve position my ship in a perfect spot all wrecks are in tractor beam range.

i have 4 tractor beam and 4 salvager.

So let begin targetting all wrecks and activating a tractor beam on each of them. As soon as a wreck gets in salvager range i activate a salvager on it.

When a salvager successfully salvage a wreck the cargo container window pop up in a group window. So after successfully salvage all 20 wrecks, i would get a group window with 20 tabs on it.

If you like to take it all there would be a button " loot all cargo container " click it, salvage done. All 20 cargo container looted.

You want to choose what you want to take, just navigate with the tabs, after you re done just click the top right X to close the
group window. Salvage done.

What do you think....:)
