So with the sector increasing in size, much more focus on long ranged travel, commodities needed for salvage/surveying and just much heavier focus on auxiliary fleet tasks I feel its high time to introduce more ways to spec your ships for these tasks.


A pair of suggested solutions:

Cargo and Fuel ship mods (either learned through skills or modspecs) that increases respective capacities depending on hull size

A system similar to how you put extra vents or capacitors on ships


Other than Surveying mod there isn't many industry or trading related customization in the game and it helps put me off auxiliary game play

Something like this?

Code

	private static Map mag = new HashMap();
	static {
		mag.put(HullSize.FIGHTER, 0f);

Hehe. Ship/Weapon Pack, no?

Those ware from Ironclads iirc. Though they are a good idea for hullmods, so it makes sens that more than one mod implements them.

Ah, touche.

[Serenitis]

Add one for fuel efficiency too and that could be something that would maybe oust survey equipment from being an auto-pick for civil shipping.
