Can you increase the range for power transfer? I'm thinking like double its current range. It's short as hell currently.

I would like this as well.

Also, please add an unlock camera for the Science Console.
Also, add an upgrade on the upgrade console to decrease Navigation Ping Cool-down.

I dont want to increase the power transfer range too much. It's supposed to be very close range so you have to get back to the BC to get it.
I might increase it slightly, but I don't want to double it.

Ideally I would like to see the power transfer range be the field of view for power console. The field of view is quite small as it is, so it's not like this would be a huge range increase. This would still mean you have to be close to the BC, which is what you are looking for.

I think it's fine as is. Frankly, I've seen quite a few people already miss power transfers due to the questionable hit boxes of some small ships. Making this even more difficult by zooming out and making the target
smaller seems counter productive.
You have unlock camera. Isn't that enough?

What I posted has nothing to do with zooming out, and there is no unlock camera for science console. I'm just saying increase the range to make it to the edge of the current field of vision.

There is actually a unlock camera for the science console. It was implemented in the patch I published a couple of hours ago along with a range increase for the power transfer
