Grouped items in console default expanded every time the console is opened

Under Consideration

This has been my biggest annoyance in VS2.2 so far -- groups are expanded by default and don't remember their last state, which defeats the purpose of grouping things for easy control of, say, multiple thruster groups.

I like this feedback

Agreed. Not total failure but very annoying :-)

Yeah, i found this very annoying myself.

Really wish we could drag and drop GPS locations into groups, and not having to remake the group if we want to add a new one. but im sure this is already planned for the future.

Adding the same element into multiple groups seems to be impossible as for now. This is just inferior to what we had in SE1. Say I want to add a thruster into 2 groups: "forward-facing thrusters" and "all thrusters.". Now I can't do that. Whoever designed the new grouping system should never have played the original game, it seems...

you can nest groups:

i.e. you can group all your thrusters, then within that group have a secondary group of reverse thrusters.

Unfortunately we can't add these control groups to the hotbars and make them useful.

Thanks for the feedback this is noted.

We understand how groups not remembering their expanded/collapsed state can undermine their usefulness and add unnecessary friction when managing larger setups.

Passed to the team for consideration as part of UI/UX improvements.
