... i canīt notice the supposed "directional damage" implemented... maybe if you substitute it for only 3 "generic" fields of Armor, Internal and External components it would make more sense, or maybe an interface like SE4 but with 3 fields (Armor, Internal and External) instead of the single one that SE4 have. (iīm making sense?)
You would definitely notice the directionality of the damage if you were playing my Gritty Galaxy mod. That said, I've changed all the slots to just "External" since I think the magic wall distinctions are silly.

Having 3 lists would hopefully work just like SE3. Given a "to-hit size" stat, that system would work really well. (If the shot randomly picks an already-destroyed component, then it penetrates to the next layer down without having killed all of the previous layer)
If it worked like it does in the table top SFB game, I would be all for how the slot layout works, or heck if it even worked like Starfury, with sectional shields and armor, I would like it more than it is now. Yet I would be completely satisfied with something similiar to SE3, and accept as easily what SE4 uses.
