Hi why can't I have all my ship's appear on screen while docked, A new type of view to see all ships...
Dune style perhaps, is there a reason this has not been done before?

I'm not even sure what you're asking for. Could you try and be more clear about where you're talking about seeing stuff? You can already see all your ships in your ship hanger.

You can, it is called your inventory box. You can see it in a nice drop down menu / list.

On a serious note: you would most likely complain that that same 'see all ships' should then apply to the inventory too. And then most likely you have problems figuring out where the stuff is, so it needs some labeling as to where it is located.

Which brings me back full circle into: it is already in the game. You just want it your way.

Have a good weekend.

The main ship on screen that my pod is in and that I can spin, I would like to see my other ships in this area of my screen.

It's a little impractical isn't it?

I've got upwards of 50 in some stations. How are they all going to fit into the ship spinning area? Some of them are cap ships in some stations too.

I think you're onto something here however I think that the entire interior of stations needs to me heavily modified...

First - Station environments are FAR FAR FAR too large atm. I'd like to start by shrinking them to a size that is somewhat reasonable.

Second - I like you would like to be able to see all or most of my assembled ships lined up next to or above each other on maybe some kind of scaffolding or "drydock" setup. I'd like for only the current "active" ship to be floating in the center of your hanger.

Third - customizable interiors of your ships added at some point

Whats to say the interior of a station is such a size. Could be vaste, Ships could be stack.

They could also be on a large roulette, when the one infocus is selected, a whole list of Modules fitted and information on its fitting setup appears, if not the fitting becomes a part of the view.

Like in car games in a garage, all important information to what bonus's a mod gives is on one page.

Whether the information appears when the mouse is hovered or an icon appears thats selected.

Just would like more depth and visual splendor.

Also more statistical information

On your third idea can really go far, there's probably too many things to add.

I've always wanted a crew and to be able to walk around the ship.

If not have other players in your ship to do certain jobs.
