I know extra fuel tanks have been asked for but for now, until that can be done (if at all), how about the option to select a particular slot for a tank?
Right now, we have a size 5 slot for a fuel tank for example. However, the same ship may have a size 6 slot for cargo or some other module. What about the ability to move the fuel tank to a larger or smaller slot, depending on availability or requirement, the same way we can with shields. Ships with small tanks could give up a larger slot for a fuel tank, large tanks could go down a size if a smaller slot is available. At present, we have a fixed slot for a fuel tank but it does seem quite ridiculous that we have several smaller sizes of tank to choose from, apart from exploration where jump range is often a requirement, what's the sense in reducing your tank size if it isn't going to free up the larger slot?
