One thing that I really dislike about SEIV

[Baron Munchausen]

I really HATE having to click every weapon "off" individually on a ship/base/sat group with many weapons when I want to micro-manage fire control in tactical mode. Why can't there be a global 'toggle' switch beneath the combat weapons control box? Then you could turn them all off with ONE click and then turn on only the ones you want to fire. SE3 had global targetting toggles.

For that matter, why can't we have SEPERATE switches for auto-movement and auto-fire control? Maybe I'm happy with the AI fire control but want to control the fleet's movement because of the brain-dead way that formations are handled? Nope, it's all or nothing, meaning you have to put up with much more tedious micro-management than really necessary. This is another very nice feature of SE3 that was lost in SE4.
