I'm not a modder, but how about if you take the stats for the Escort, make it smaller in size, weight, etc, its movement and range would be less because of less space available, then use it as a drone, it would have warp capability the same as any ship, but would be restricted from what it could carry, possibly increase number of engines and speed. This wouldn't be a hard code change just a reduction in all the fields of what is already there. I think SJ did something like this in his pirate mod to redesign some of his ships. Could this be possible, smaller typ ship used as a drone. Could put maybe computer core only on it or something to that effect??

just some ideas mac

that's exactly what i'm talking about, one of my first "drones" was just a copy of the Escort but smaller. But the movement and range will be the same as any other ship, each engine will still only use 10 suplies and store 500, so you always get 50 range.
