With the upcoming update, I believe it's a great opportunity to address a much-needed quality-of-life feature, tooltips. This is especially relevant now that the new update will introduce thrusters with significantly different behaviors.
right now the tooltip mod is one of the most important mods I use (despite being a bit buggy). Having to open the encyclopedia every time I need to compare equipment stats is both inconvenient and kinda time-consuming. I would even argue that the game could use nested tooltips, a feature basically every modern strategy games are using nowadays. it helps you with figuring out what you are looking at inside the tooltip without having to close it.
Additionally, I think this is a good moment to discuss the encyclopedia's limitations. It could be expanded to include much more relevant information, not just fluff, but practical information. For example, what the item you're looking at is used for, where specific goods are considered illegal, and maybe even more context and fluff.
