i have a idea for a ship

i have been using a orca to move ships around and really it is better for big mining ops then just a ship transport and i was thinking that some one could desing a ship just to haul ships around like a jeep carrier or something

but with a large hanger and good cargo space weapons would be good but just something that we multi tasking players can use for moving ships from one station to another and back again with out repackaging them so what can we do about this thank you

under the radar is where i fly i make my isk like very one

What about a ship with only a ship hanger and no cargo space ? Say an Orca but with its cargo hold stripped out and the extra space given over to moving fitted ships only ?

yes but there would be the main cargo all ships have but the corp hanger and the ore hold would be pulled out and more space given to carring fitted ships and the cargo would be for ammo or loot and salvage

for the purposes of balancing, I would prefer a vessel that was basically an orca, but with only three holds:

a cargo bay (roughly 500 m^3)
a drone bay (roughly 50 m^3)
a ship maintenance bay (roughly lolhuge m^3)

Can't carry another ship its size within itself, but you get the idea.

well a battle ship and smaller is what i am talking about i use a drake and a transport to salvage and i would love to be able to haul both of them but ammo and salvage and some drones too but just the fact that it would help
