Will be more immersive, if player can give some commands by talk to pilot directly:
1. "Pilot, I have some order for you!" - opens map with preselected ship for give orders by mouse clicking.
2. "Pilot, wait for signal!" - interrupt current commands with wait for signal.
3. "Resume current orders" - we already have.
Maybe some more useful fast commands.

kuertee's mod does some of that, and since he is now working for ego maybe they can implement some of it, probably if he pushes a little

Re: [QOL] More commands in chat menu with capitans.
I support the OP's idea but to expand on it as well. I'd like to see more interaction with the faction and trade reps. Being able to negotiate a conflict resolution or negotiate cooperation with them would be nice. I had a sector I'd taken from ZYA that bordered Paranid sectors that had several of their factories in it already and rather than spend needed resources defending it myself being able to extend an offer for them to take it over would be a nice option.

No, no... Too complicated
I wish small thing - possibility to say: "Pilot! I have new order for you!" directly to pilot, not just by mouse click...
I wish hear from him: "Sir! Yes, Sir!". I wish to be commander! Not just clicker-man...

Re: [QOL] More commands in chat menu with capitans.
To be honest, both options would be awesome to have in the game.
NPC interaction is pretty sparse, and I fully agree with the suggestion to add more meaningful interactions with our hired NPCs. Just the ability to give NPCs the same orders we can give them in map mode, but in the form of a dialog interface, would go a long way toward improving the immersion. I know XR got a lot of negative feedback for its conversation mini-game (I'm one of the weird ones who actually liked it), but the X4 system has real potential.
I also agree that it would be nice to have some more diplomacy options with other factions, and more meaningful interactions based on our current relations, but I acknowledge that this is a request of an entirely different scope.
