SE5 Poll on Slot Layout, take 2

[Will]

The way ship design works could probably have a big impact on the population of players that SEV would appeal to. If things are just like they are now in Starfury, it would likely be very interesting to the more hard-core set that likes to dig down into the nitty-gritty details, and would turn off casual players who would rather not spend five mintues designing one ship.

What would be really nice is "have your cake and eat it too". List out a bunch of components you would like to include, and the game will generate a design based on that list. Those who are interested in the details of design can then shuffle around the placement of components. Otherwise, the design can just be accepted as-is.
