I think engine audio kits would be a great idea, some ships in elite dangerous have epic sounds, other have boring sounds, and some have terrible sound. Being able to customize them like you can with weapon and engine colors in my opinion would open a lot more options in what ships I would fly. Here are a few implementation suggestions, but how it is done is really up to the devs.
Basic - Buying an engine kit for a ship will grant that ship the ability to have any set of sound any other ship has, or buying a certain set of sound that could be used for any other ship. The first option I find will be better, or having both would be good.
Advance - Having the ability to choose boost sounds, cruise sounds, and brake sounds. So it would be like the ship kits, in that you could choose different sounds.
Elite - This is like the one above but you would be able to choose filters adjust levels and different effects for each set of sounds.
I know the sound team is excessively good at there job and they could really nail something like this.
Other ideas:
- Weapon sound filters, make your guns sound more powerful or more alien. Or make them silenced for stealth(Could be a module for gameplay reasons).
- Jumping sounds, and super cruise sounds could be changed.
- Different UI sounds too could be fun, like turning on and off different functions. Lights, night vision, Etc.
- Sound filters, similar to what happens when you go into life support. Could change the ambience of your ship and how you hear outside sounds.
