A simple yet powerful addition would be a toggle in settings (or crew) that allows the user to set modules to activate as soon as they cool down.
To prevent afk abuse, the toggle should only enable once you press the module button while it is on cooldown.
This should work like this:
1: Activate module
2: press module button once more to enable this feature
3: as soon as the module cools down, it is automatically activated and goes back on cooldown.
4: the user must press the module key again to activate the feature again.
5: if the user does not press it again while on cooldown, it will not automatically activate once cooled down.
I primarily say this because having to spam the key in an emergency situation often leads to instant deactivation upon activation.
