So we have a Type 10 now (a beefed up Type 9 by all accounts), good, will look out for it while buzzing here and there in my Python.
Why don't FD offer a competition for a "Player Designed Ship" which the winner would be allowed to pick up at a location of their choice for free, available to the winner as soon as it was completed, it could be included in an update in Q4 2018, ready for Xmas 2018 maybe for everyone else, all stats and details would have to be supplied as well, obviously.
I have noticed there is not much variety of shape for the ships in Elite, so one of the criteria could be an original "SPACE" ship design, not necessarily an aerodynamic shape as all ships in Elite are.
If anyone says "if it is not aerodynamic it can't land on atmospheric worlds" when we get them, I say "Why not, it is a game after all".
If this Idea is taken up by FD, then Happy Designing.
PS, Merry Xmas
