Summary

This is a small gameplay change. Default autopilot settings for new players are set “Shorter route” which is often leading them to low security space. Also default setting is that autotargeting is “On” which can lead to unwanted Concord response. New players should be by default protected from this. At least until they master basic game mechanics

Solution

Default autopilot setting should “Safer route” and default auto targeting option should “Off”

Pros

• Improves game experience for new players
• Implementation time should be minimal

Cons

• none
