I didn't want to make 500 posts so I have collected my suggestions for a bit for one large post.

Tool tips
Tool tips need more info like skill level requirements and the cargo/inventory & passengers amounts

Traveller tasks
It would help a lot with traveller tasks to allow for a selected tier of resources to give to them.
Floathaven is currently on T3 and working towards T4 already yet the traveller tasks are still at T1 for most due to the level scaling.
Creating a drop down menu for task tier selection would be a nice way to implement this.

Storage permissions (Settlement)
The permissions for settlements are quite bad currently and can invite people to steal resources from chests.
As such it would be nice to give chests specific storage permissions per person or on a settlement rank basis like how empires work.
Another addition would be for a one way storage access, as in that people can put in resources and not take out, or the other way around based on storage permission or something alike.

Storage permissions (Personal)
Working as a group and gathering a lot of cargo items, it is very bothersome to transfer items over 1 by 1 or drop them on the ground waiting for the item claim timer to disappear.
As such a way to invite people to drop or take out resources from your personal cache, raft or boat would help this process a lot.
This could also make use of the one way system mentioned earlier.

Inventory options
It would be nice to see an inventory sorting button but also a transfer all button for vehicles, caches, chests and banks.

Item claim timer
Believed this was mentioned already on one of the streams, but it would be nice if there is an option for people to remove the item claim timer by themselves, this would help a lot with group hunting/porting.

Swapable loadouts
Some professions have to change loadouts quite a lot from crafting to gathering and when gathering ready up for combat due to a nearby jackyl, this takes quite a lot of time so allowing some loadout options to instantly change into a self made loadout.

Player trading
Unable to bulk trade cargo with other players, vehicles/cache isn't being taken into account.
Also you currently have to drop cargo from your vehicles/cache into your backpack and then into the trade,

Empire

  • Empire name change, currently you can't rename the empire, if this is intended but a large warning for that during the creation process.
  • Non moveable watch towers, if you mess up the watchtower placement for the grid or want to terraform the ground under it that is currently not possible.
  • Unable to see empire foundry project timer duration when targeting it.
  • would be nice for the empire crown to also be affected by citizen amount and not just territory size, allowing for smaller but still very strong empires to also reflect this on their emperor.

Settlement totem
Unable to move it after, you are unable to move the claim totem and as such can't terraform the ground under it.

Friend system & party groups
Probably suggested plenty of time but wanted to mention it since the "Storage permissions (Personal)" could feed very nicely into this.

Map
Personal map markers would be nice to make and also being able to share them with a group party/specific person.

There is already an option to store all your items when you right click on your inventory

Extra additions:

Settlement

  • Claim (co-)owners should instantly unlock the higher tier stations once the claim tier increases.
    It can be rather annoying to figure out what is needed for the recipe and for designing around the higher tiered stations.

  • People who aren't part of a settlement can't gather resources on that settlement but those who are can, this can cause some people to remove "decorative" resources.
    To which I have 2 suggestions.

  • Add decorative resources building.

  • Add permissions for claim resource cutting.

  • Permission for treasury access

  • Permission for claim border expansion
    Both of these currently fall under (co-)owner and some more flexibility with this would be nice.

  • A messaging board for a settlement would be nice to add tasks, orders or just newspapers on.
    A public and non-public editable version would be nice, could be a toggle on the messaging board itself.

  • Bulk drop of cargo into the claim totem, currently it's one by one.
