I’m fairly new to the game, been playing a little over a month, but there are a few things relating to the ships which are bugging me.
*First, you can’t view the numerical stats of your current load in-game without having another ship in the same port and storing the one you want to view. Also, while there is a cool ship-building tool online (spacing the name right now) that lets you plan load-outs and see how your power priorities work (or don’t) you can’t simply do that in the outfitter and you really should be able to. Even if you could only do this once per ship it would allow a great deal of customization and customizing your ship is a big deal in terms of immersion.
*Limited versatility/customization option because of the preset slots. It would be nice if you could break-down a slot into two, perhaps loosing 1 class value in the process. For example: make a class 3 slot two class one slots, a class 4 slot a 2 and a 1, a class 5 slot a 3 and a 1 or two 2’s, et al. Does anyone carry a fuel transfer line? They might if they could play with the spacing a bit more.
*I want to be able to upload and use my own decals! I’ll pay the store a reasonable fee, I just want the option. Custom paint jobs would also be nice. Again, I’d pay a small amount of cash for the in-game option.
Not really ship related but some of the cargo options (or lack thereof) are getting on my nerves. If I find an occupied escape pod my options are to sell them into slavery or leave them to rot? I can’t just bring them to safety and maybe get a little reward? If I find black boxes, diplomatic bags, or the like I HAVE to sell them on the black market; I can’t just turn them in to the authorities like, ideally, a good citizen would do?
