"Enable Seat Recharge" - Survival Game Setting Toggle

"Enable Seat Recharge" - Enables recharging suit when seated.

This setting would be fitting for the survival settings category adding another layer of difficulty at virtually zero development cost as all items required for survival are already in the game. This setting, when disabled, would incentivize players to design their vehicles and stations with easy access to recharge stations, cryo-pods, medical station, survival kit or access to power kits.

Image shows an Altered Screenshot of what the Survival Setting can look like in the custom game setup screen in Space Engineers.

The reason is simply another layer of balance and also a purpose to features that are in the game but are rarely used such as the above mentioned blocks and the power kit itself that is craftable but would not see much use when everyone, me included just quickly jumps into a seat to recharge.

This rule can be skipped for beds, allowing the player to log out in a pressurized environment safely while keeping the player charged in a bed, or for simplicity sake include beds in this setting so when the suit runs out of power, you better have an ac in your logout room, leaving the safest logout option to be the cryo-pods. This Paragraph does of course not apply to singleplayer games.

I hope this suggestion finds you in good spirit and that this can be considered for a future update~
