Please tell me you mean most mid sized ships handle like snails, because if you think the DBS handles like a snail.......
DBS is not a snail
That is why I said a mid ship that doesnt aka does not handle like a snail commas seperates the sentance hehe, the DBS is nimble enough that I don't fear anything, even massive ships (as long as they don't have turrets I can take down massive condas too in mine ^^)While what you say is true, I don't think that you're taking size into account. Fighters have staggered seating yes, but fighters are also among the smallest of aircraft. Once you cross a certain size, it becomes impractical. I think of ships in Elite as being more on par with naval ships in space, than aircraft. Your mileage may differ.

I like sitting to one side. Makes the ships feel more cosy.
Voted no just to have 50-50. What's OCD?
What's OCD?Yeah, I would like more centered cockpit designs. Although the only one that really bothered me so far is the FDL cockpit.
But what I'd really love would be more large ships with cockpits towards the back of the ship. Putting the cockpit into the nose of a combat ship doesn't make any sense imho and it doesn't feel any different than any small ship with a cockpit on the front. But when it's farther back like on the Anaconda and Corvette you can actually see the massive ship's hull, and watch how the hardpoints are deploying. I like that.

I don't mind it on the FDL or Python, adds a nice touch to the game without being intrusive.
The anaconda is centered, the Clipper is pretty close to centered and it's hard to tell because of the windshield.
The reason why most big ships don't have centered pilot seats is because they have multi-seat cockpits and FD doesn't want to have to alter the cockpits for multi-crew.

The only one in the whole wide world (which includes the Galaxy).
The corvette is symmetrical to a point... But if you look back the seat on the right is a bit further forward than the seat on the left.
Not fighters.
Bombers or ground attack.

They have artificial gravity in Star Wars. Therefore no issue with rotation about any axis regardless of distance.

This used to bother me but I guess I got used to it and now I barely even notice it.
I wonder if the author of the OP has since got used to sitting to one side of the ship.

Cough - Lightning (very fast fighter, vertical climb at stupendous rate of knots) - cough cough - Canberra (serious OCD issues, with an offset cockpit!);

That stupid, pointless, ugly, off-centerer bar in the FDL... GRRRRRRRR!
It's not so much "pointless, ugly, off-centre" as it "in the bloody way".
