Just an idea for the UI.

Just a note:

You should only keep one LS/CQ pair in the inner hull. The rest can be used for impromtu armor.
Shield generators can be the same way, since you only need one to keep your regenerators useful.

Weapons should be packed in as close to the inside as you can get if you want your ship to get an extra shot off before it explodes.

Right now it could be a mute point until we can get the slots more user friendly.

Well, then just put the crew quarters on the outside. What kind of a battle dosen't have a bunch of redshirts dying?

Not all of them; this isn't a landing party you know! In this case etiquette dictates you sacrifice all but one red shirt who recovers with strange new powers/abilities.

This is a nice tweak. And with the colours so distinct from each other, you could tweak the image further to have the letters A, I, O removed from the top left of each square to reduce clutter on the layout screen.

The surviving red shirt becomes the captain of the stellar manip ship, and uses his mind to active the comps. I always place valuable stuff on the inside of the hull due to realism. Also, one thing I noticed is the comp sticks stuff all over the hull, I noticed on one klingon bop the comp put all the engines on the very front, talk about weird.
