  1. It would be very helpful if we could remotely order captains to do things like: change or equip modules, permanently or temporarily, going to an equipment dock to remove permanent installations. replace existing turrets with a specified one from inventory, or remove a specified turret equip specified turrets on pre-defined hardpoint areas adjust power toggles and priorities clone and train crew ship repairs The assets screen should also keep you notified of ship alerts, like insufficient crew and broken blocks, as well as their shield/hull status

  2. Well, I wouldn't call it 'admiration'. XD But I'm sick of seeing brick shaped ships, so it's always great to see people trying to put more effort into making better looking ships. I see you used some slopes on your battle-cruiser, but there are some parts that still look very blocky. Like the engines at the back could use something around them to make them look better. Your frigates on the other hand, way too blocky. XD Also I feel like your frigates are way to big to be frigates. They are all like Dreadnought sized ships. LOL This is how I do my ship size classifications Class Size Number of System Slots Heavy Fighter 1 Escort 2-3 Corvette 4-5 Frigate 6-7 Destroyer 8-9 Cruiser 10-11 Battleship 12-13 Dreadnought 14-15 How much resources do those ships cost? They seem like they are way bigger than they need to be. I don't think you need a mining ship that big with 1243.12 hanger space. You can only have a max of 10 squads on any one ship or station, each squad can have a max of 12 fighters meaning their is a total of 120 slots for fighters. And the max size of a fighter if you didn't put any points into size to make them smaller is 8. So the max size any carrier would need is 960 for 10 full squads of size 8 fighters if the numbers for hanger space is 1:1 with fighter size. If you have even smaller fighters than you need even less hanger space. But having all your ships big enough to have 14-15 System Slots seems kind of ridiculous. XD As for building better looking ships, I think you should start by first rough sketching out some designs (Not brick shaped) and plan out where you will fix all the things you need in your ship. Then you should use framework blocks to map out the rough shape of the ship. After you have a rough outline add in all your important internal parts until your ship has all the capabilities you want it to have. Then you start building the outer hull of the ship with rounded smooth shapes to make it look cool and match the rough sketch you first planned.
