I've also noticed two things with the buttons since Thursday's patch. Now, when I pick up a device it auto-equips it (either on my ship in space, or on my captain on the ground) and shows up in my power bar. If I wanted it equipped, I'd equip it. I'm a big boy. I know how to equip things. I don't know why it began doing this, and maybe someone like it, but please give me the option to shut this off.
The second thing is I've noticed my BOff powers appear in empty spots on my power bar. I don't want them there. I already have my BOff powers showing up on the HUD (down at the bottom) so why must they show up on my power bar as well? And when I drag them off, then zone, they pop right back on.
