Suggestion

Show loadout on flight screen. As is, I never know when I'm out of missiles
Navigation screen: no system display. I forget what system I'm in while making the new coordinates.
In the mission page, the issuing station is not displayed, so I have to ask. Frustrating.
New HUD configurations to choose from instead of me having to go through plug ins to reconfigure it myself.

Other than those few little things, all I have to say is I love the simulation...keep up the good work

Mission page DOES show what station a mission is at, if not available where you are currently docked.
Agreed with nav suggestion, but minor; its easy enough to hit "show system map", then hide it.
Loadouts ARE shown, i thought - are you using the condensed hud? In options>advanced>interface, near the bottom, unselect "use condensed hud".
^----if im wrong about this being a FlightHUD mismatch, then use a plugin. Dont wanna use a plugin? Either your lazy or your on iOS, which cant have plugins. But you could always count your missiles in your head.

Luxen I think he means ammo count

Why cannot iOS have plugins? I've been running plugins on my none-jailbroken iPad for a while, way before the first testflight iPhone release, I know it was not advertised in a changelog or anything, but it does work. Unless that got taken out?. Just use diskaid to install them to the right locations and most work.

Anywho, the HUD does show both a load out and an ammo-count, in both modes. It is by default in the little box that is on the left middle of the screen. If you do not see an ammo count, or an addon box, then maybe a plugin is getting in the way? If you have no plugins maybe try post a screen grab ?

iOS app data files could be viewed and modified without needing jailbreak through many PC softwares (I used to use iFunBox), which would be enough for placing the plugin files. But this could be done in earlier versions of the OS. Most of these softwares can no longer be used since Apple made the OS more secure. Not sure if there are any softwares that support this now.

However a customisable HUD would reduce the hassle, someone that starts playing this on a mobile is definitely not aware of any such functions nor do they expect it from a game that they aren't yet aware isn't limited to mobile.
