Hello to all!
There was very cool idea in early stage with heat signature that totally lost right now.
We have Silent Running and that is all. But we should use it like main difference between small and large ships, it should allow to us using stealth in battles also! So eagle with low heat signature should be almost invisible for large radars while dormant and drift not allocating additional heat. Also the higher class of sensor provide worse identification of small ships and less accuracy of gimbals and turret weapons. It also can give new type of equipment for large ships like sonar radar to find invisible targets, that hiding somewhere, by using ammo for example. Also great idea with heat sinks - it should work like chaff in combat! Once you release them they have become a target for the turrets and gimbals until your heat signature is rise up.
But NPC's ships should be still well equipment with expensive outfit to be hard enough target to kill by Eagle for example.
Hauler and Adder can be used for salvage containers right from the battlefield.
It will allow you to choose different ships for smuggling - the bigger ship, the higher risks!
