At the very least co-pilots should be able to select targets that the pilot and gunners would see highlighted on their screen (in a different color perhaps?) so fire could be directed and focused (not everyone uses voice programs when they play and its extremely inconvienant to try typing anything invoved or specific while in space!). Maybe targets selected by co-pilot in this way would get a slight damage bonus from guns from the MP ship they are in that actually hit it, or maybe the copilot could target hostiles and selct locations on it so that any of his ships guns would hit those areas when shooting it. Anything to help tie the players together and make it more of a group effort. And the copilot definently needs the ability to shut off and turn on the emergency klaxon. (this could be a temp work around for the extremely annoying plasma fire bug).
