Here are a few suggestions regarding weapon slot (hotbar) expansion and the setup/usage mechanics for Star Wars Force powers.
Suggestion 1: Expanding the Hotbar / Inventory Slots
Currently, the weapon hotbar in the bottom-right is limited to 5 slots. Is this limitation due to mobile UI/UX constraints? Having 6 or 7 slots would significantly increase strategic options and loadout variety.
Could you consider expanding the hotbar to at least 6 slots? On mobile devices, this could easily be accommodated by scaling down the slot/HUD size slightly.
Suggestion 2: Dedicated Ability Slot for Star Wars Force Powers
This is a suggestion regarding the Star Wars Force abilities in Fortnite.
Currently, Force powers occupy a standard weapon slot. Could these be moved to a dedicated ability slot—similar to champion skills in League of Legends—rather than taking up an inventory item space?

Having Force powers take up a precious inventory slot feels overly restrictive. More importantly, having to swap to the Force item before casting feels clunky; having it as a dedicated, instant-cast ability would make the gameplay feel much smoother and more responsive.
