This presents some other issues that we need to look at. Basically what we would end up doing is allow people to change the ship design for a specific type of ship. Like for instance if you changed the spec of your Destroyer, all destroyers would have the same functionality. We decided not to implement single ship spawns for blueprints because it just became too much for anyone to manage.
Implementing something in the future that would allow you to customize a type, and design your own Destroyer class ship could be a possibility, and something we are actively looking at.
There are a ton of things, and items that are not in the game yet. We plan on adding them. We have a very long future planned and designed for this game. We needed to cut it off some where so you could all start playing. Keep the feed back coming, we look forward to all the suggestions.
