Default City Ships

Hello everyone, I regret to say that I'm new to SE4 (or SE for that matter), I wish I would of stumbled across this gem in the ruff a long time ago. I've currently got the Demo, and awaiting the full game in the mail. Enough about me, on to my idea/request.

I would like to see City Ships in the game... massive craft on the line of Dreadnoughts... They could mount a special componet that Holds Population... but unlike cargo, it allows the population to grow (at a low %, and to the max capacity of the "city componets"). Additionally, planet type facilities such as reasearch/ intelligence/ medical/ storage/ ect. to be available as componets... they would be very heavy and expensive though. The other important componet would be a "Ship Supply Componet" that acts as a resupply depot but at huge maintance costs.

The main reason I would like to see this is that for a while now I've been running a pen&paper RPG that includes such a "nomadic" race. And indeed they do alot of remote mining.

What are your thoughts? And is it possible to create this in a mod (I fear not, as I have read many of the Posts in this forum)
