I'm pretty sure this has been discussed before, but I feel the need to bring it up again...
I'd like to see all of the POB ships (YT-1300, Nova Courier, Decimator, Y-8, maybe even the Yacht, but seeing as how it's speed and all are all not dependant on parts...) have their "sluggish" turning, rather long engine power up and brakes adjusted to be abit faster. Now, I'm notsuggesting we makethem as agile as fighters or the Millenium Falcon (I know, huge modifications and all that jazz...), I just think it would be nice for them to be more manueverable, faster on the throttle andquicker toslowor stop. Not a whole lot, just a noticable difference that would make them more fun to fly.

Id rather they lasted longer than 5 seconds against a fighter personally. Its sad that a big ship can still get 1 or 2 shotted.

I think both sugestions should be implemented for those ships to be usable and fun for fighting.

Heh... I've actually managed to take out PC Tie Interceptors in my YT. I've only done it twice, though. So yeah, extra maneurvrability would be nice...

Extra manuverability would also be nice in the Y-8....
It's a pain trying to follow those asteroids...

This is just one other minor addition, mostly just a pet peeve of mine... the Co-Pilot station. I've yet to find anyone that wanted to sit there pushing a button every great once in awhile. That and I have always trusted myself with such commands a little more, I'd like to see the Co-Pilot seat only function when someone is sitting there, otherwise the Pilot has control over Droid Programs and the like... maybe share it? I don't know...
I've also heard some recommendations for doubling up on some components, such as double layering armor (2 in front, 2 in rear), having two shield generatorsor one capacitor for each gunner turret. I think those would be interesting to have too...
Ah, I'm day-dreaming I guess... oh well

two shields would be the only thing neccesary, because you can get a flight computer, load all you need and bam your capacitor is dbl wht it is, ya know? besides with 2 turrents anyways i noticed the capacitor barely goes down
