I know I'm asking a lot, but I really, really would like a more detailed 'specsheet' of the ships on sale.
Now all you know is the maximum speed, cargocapacity and the added niceties the ship on sale comes with, but even that last one is not always very informative.
For instance: I was saving up to buy a Griffin, and finally I had enough cash for the "standard customer model". Much to my (happy) surprize the standard outfit came with a beam laser (very nice, gives you a fighting chance) docking-computers (yay! for lazy me) and an advanced space compass (Pffff... I rarely use it, 'cause backslash on a Flemish-Belgian keyboard is [ALT][SHIFT][/], too cumbersome inflight and I'm too lazy to remap, heh).
So, very nice little extras.... But I had no way to tell that beforehand.
Things I'd really like to see listed: energy banks, possible -or rather impossible- upgrades (because it's very frustrating to buy a ship that looks good, but you can't outfit to the max if that's not stated anywhere beforehand...) and what you get with the standard model.
Now I understand all that info can't be listed the way the yard is set up currently, but maybe a [Press .. For more Info] could be added. Either a blazing salespitch (lots of work) or a dry 'Get The Facts' readout from the shipmodel's plist (should be more straightforward)
Please?
