Having that "use pilot tool" function only on some pilot tools and on some not would make no sense to the casual player. But having Muse do anything in that field of usability may not happen too soon anyway.

It would also mean pilots would not burn through the engines or balloon during a frenetic fight or because of unexpected mouse scrolling.

ALSO no more noobs keeping the kero(more like moonshine) highlighted without them realising and killing the whole ship. Its the biggest reason why I NEVER tell noobs about the pilot tools.

EDIT, because I did not scroll down far enough and posted this in the middle of a quote.
I have done that... :'( I think another good fix would be to be able to change the color of the active item on UI. I doubt people would be able to ignore a bright green symbol under the wheel

If somebody can't comprehend that the current activated tool is the one highlighted and thus looks different from all the other non-activated tools then I doubt changing the color to green will do anything...

Muse said they'll be looking into the idea mentioned in the original post (Having an option for pilot tools to be click activated like tar) :)

"we will look into it" means nothing more than "we saw your email".
