For those of us who want to save for the next level of a certain skill,yet are compulsive SP spenders.
Why not have a method to allocate %s of SP received for up to 10 skills.
EG. You get 1000 SP 25% goes to your next level dropsuit,10% goes to vehicle command while the remaining 75% goes to your SP pool.(bad maths are intentional)
This could be used in two ways:
-pay as you go,whittling the cost down slowly
-lump sum,the allocated points are set aside becoming untouchable by the player until the next level is purchased,then are used on target skill automatically
This method could be applied to passive SP as well.
Minimal skill allocation would be 10%.
Priority lists could be made,so that when you max out a skill (priority 1) it automatically begins transferring SP to another skill (priority 2).
EG.3 priority 1 skills max out,it would move on to priority 2 targets,then priority 3.
At any point another priority 1 skill can be set.(just in case a new skill comes with an update)
