one step to making our yt-1300 usefull to master privateers as a bomber...
make the devs take note and make our mp ship atleast useable by freelance pilots that will probably never have a crew...

If only pilot on an MP ship or only someone is sitting int the pilot seat the turrets are locked into the targeting recticle the pilot has, and programs on computer are runable by the pilot seat.
This would be the Default norm for an mp ship untill somone assumes one of the 3 other positions, then that position could be taken from the pilot and given to the gunner.
This solves pilots having to jump from seat to navigator just to hit 3 buttons.
This also gives a pilot of an mp ship ability to do what he wants with it ... have fun flying arround and if attacked able to defend himself. 2 missle racks isn't enough.
Another opition is to have the guns used by AI with hit% and fire rates based on the level of computer being used and the guns fire only while the fire trigger for the main guns are held down (so targets that you need to board/inspect are not fired upon.
tech level 1,2 - 40% hit ratio
tech level 3,4 - 50% hit ratio
tech level 5,6 - 60% hit ratio
tech level 7,8 - 70% hit ratio
tech level 9 - 80% hit ratio
tech level 10 - 90% hit ratio
and target the same target the pilot has chosen
Put in a station where you can re-load the missle racks, *this would allow solo players in an mp ship to run .. reload .. go back and contiue fighting rather than leave .. land .. reload... take off .. run my programs . and engage again.
I'm just looking to make the MP master ship fun for somone gets whom normally doesn't have alot of free time and alot of friends/guildmates on at the same time to be able to have fun in the million dollar purchase .. otherwise may as well re-deed it and fly the yatch..
The best night i spent on my mp ship i sat back and directed the assault on the imperial corvett while all the fighters kept on attacking but i could do nothing after missles are spent.

Originally the Firespray was the Master Privateer ship, however after players complained that Master Privateer was getting two iconic ships. (Firespray and YT-1300), the devs changed it so that the Firespray was for everyone. It would have been nice if they have given Master Privateer a replacement ship, though.
ya... maybe we will get the first new ships... one can hope

/agree, need a master level ship. Been using my Rihkxyrk and I like it but the mass limitations for it are kinda hurting. I got my Firespray today but I don't want it to get decayed so I'm pretty much afraid to use it in high-level combat.

Naboo starfighter would probaly be worse than a z95, seeing as how its much older.
edit: plus it looks pretty stupid
