Just a minor add-on:

We have auto-engage for a two click job (interstellar travel);
why not for a three click job (interplanetary travel)?

I for one spend more time in my scout ship jumping from planet to planet than from star to star...
and atm I have to 'enter astral view', 'set course' and 'engage engines'; at least one of those steps seems redundant

or am I missing something here?  21

You're not. It's a good idea. 1

Reminds me of the chain jumping idea someone else had for FTLs. I think they could be added in together.

Good to hear!   1

Since I've been away for a while, I'm not always sure I've picked up on all of the new updates and shortcuts yet...  confused
