Now we know that our CMDR's must be going through some serious stress in their ships; but obviously some technology (suit, anti-inertia space, damping field, etc etc) must be helping us stay alive.
*** My suggestion is that we actually have a slot (and selection of modules / suits etc) for this on our ships. ***
And of course they can fail, like any other system on board. The results of system failure would be reduced turn speeds, acceleration and deceleration.
Different performances (1E through to 1A) would give capabilities suitable for various roles. Combat is obviously going to need 1A as the optimal, whereas trading could get away with a 1E, perhaps.
This would give another level of depth to the play, and another essential element to fit. It would be a cockpit enhancement, so no extra slot needed in the ship. It could be included in the Holo-Me section as part of the suit kit.
Failure of the component could reduce control response to emulate difficulty in turning or acceleration / deceleration. Constantly trying to outperform the reduced envelope would reduce the life support health with subsequent warnings. Reaching zero health on life support equals death / ejection.
After all, manoeuvring without limits is, shall we say, too easy.
Please FD, give this some serious consideration.
