That's correct.
Bummer. Would you folks consider forward firing turrets at somepoint for POB ships? My YT-1300 is nice for traveling but useless in combat even with the newer components. Think it over at least? Thanks for your response by the way TH, I appreciate it.
The team has discussed the possibilities. There is just a lot of other things going on at the moment...
Understatement of the year.

If they were to give the YT-2400 or the YT-1300 the ability to fix the guns forward, they would have to lower their mass so that they couldn't use the new POB-only components. A singleplayer ship with 10k shields, 7k armor, an elite engine, and elite guns would be rediculously overpowered. It would dumb down PvE extensively, and it would completely wreck PvP. There really is no way to make the current POB ships fully controllable by a single player, while at the same time making sure that they have the appropriate strength when manned by three players.

Understandable with the new stuff going in today on TC (which I am eager to try). Thanks for taking it into consideration. Have a great weekend (I know Tiggs said it was going to be a long one, try to get out a little.) Thanks again, TH!

Besides the droid/flight computer bug with this ship, theres also another one.
There are no alarms on the ship. And there are no fires inside when your ship gets damaged. I had some components like , down to 5% , and you wouldnt be able to tell just walking through the ship ! (nothin on fire at all )

well.... ok, then something similar to it, maybe not the EXACT Ebon Hawk.... but it would be nice to fly it, and fight against the YT-1300 & YT-2400 amoung the Other Ships

I remember when Leilani pwned Thunderheart. Now he raises your hand in victory 
. I still want to be featured in a leilani post 
50005h post is a better number!
I want to be a star like leilani too. but I don't know enough about star wars quotes to win.
