One feature I think would be nice to have implimented, is the ability to select which attachment point of a starship piece to use when connecting it with the rest of the model. With the way the game is designed, each piece can only be connected at one point (unless by chance I've missed it!)
I think this could be quite simple to impliment. First you'd click the "select attachment point button", the attachment points would light up on the piece, then you click which one you'd like to use, and the model updates and uses the new point.
This would open up alot more options in ship design.
I also would like to see an autofit button. After a piece has been placed, select it, select the autofit and then a second attachment point (on a different piece) and the model is automatically rotated and scaled to fit between the two points. The piece can no longer be rotated/scalled until you deselect the autofit button, or delete one of the two pieces it is attached to, but it will automatically rotate/scale between them as they are changed.
With both of these options, deslecting the button will not change the piece back. It would also be nice to have an undo button at this point.
Thanks for a great game. I love the research and the unit customization!
