Yes, but on second thought that is going to suck.

Re: SE5 Poll on Slot Layout, take 2
Ever played Starfury? Presumably in (stock) SE5 it will work much the same way - you have a bazillion slots, but a tonnage limitation, so you can't possibly fill up all of them with components. (This also does help with the "Oh no, my shipset sucks therefore all my designs suck" problem - unless you are playing with a mod that has very light components or a shipset with very small ship models, you will not run into a shortage of slots on your ship!) In Starfury, for instance, you might have 50 slots on a ship, with the average component weighing in at maybe 20-50kT - but only the largest ships reached 1000kT, let alone 2500kT! Presumably SE5 will be similar...

I'd have to test-drive it. Sounds neat so far.

We are limited to what we can say for or against SLOTs.

Re: SE5 Poll on Slot Layout, take 2
I did not request it and I am not opposed to it.
Fyron: Your bias is implied in many ways. My first thought while reading the poll description was, "Fyron found out there might be slotted components in SEV and thought 'Who the hell ever asked for that? I sure didn't and I don't want it.'"

Re: SE5 Poll on Slot Layout, take 2
Naturally there is always a reason for making a poll... But I did try to keep the options covering everything. I originally had it say yes, no and don't care, but it was pointed out to me that it would be a more useful poll to have the broader options currently in place.
