The feature I would love to see added to the game is the ability to produce ORBITAL research facilities. The way I invision this would be to have a research comonent that could be placed onto a starbase or battlestation. (the cost of the comonent would be 2000kt) It would add 10% to the systems research efforts.
Additionally, I would love a feature that showed a player what enemy ships are in the area of space they are about to enter. (Kinda like the one used in Rebellion) This would be very helpful in evaluating wheather or not you wanted to engage the enemy, and vis versa.
Actually, you can. "System" abilities for Facilities also work in components! It's the PLANET abilities that don't work in components. So, you can't make a "Research Lab" in a base, but you can make a System Computer Complex in a base! Weird, huh? I haven't done this myself, yet. But I'm playing a new game where I've added some system abilities to some components. I'll be able to test them when I can research the techs.
