Player Features and Ideas Discussion

I don't know if this is a problem for most people but I noticed this yesterday as I was ratting.

For context I was flying a Hurricane, Arty and Missile Fit.

I commonly group my weapons together so I have less buttons to hit and so I can do alpha damage, but when ratting npcs I often kill targets without the need for all of my guns. To get around wasting my ammo I ungroup everything and only designate a certain number of turrets to a target based on its size. For example, if there are 2 frigates I'll put 4 turrets on each and pop them both, but when hitting a cruiser or bc I'll use all turrets.

The problem with the former is that I have to click 8 keys to make that happen and in the latter only 1 (if grouped).

I am proposing that we be able to make custom weapon groups of any number. That way I can have 2 groups of 4 turrets or a group of 2 and a group of 6 if I wanted. That way I can split my damage with less clicks and still be able to alpha easily.

This new group would still be limited to modules of the same type however, as the ammo mechanic would most likely be an issue.
