Not really an issue, but the fact that shuttle is on the same branch as industrials and freighters in ISIS doesn't sit well with me...
Add insult to injury it even have the same role (Hauling). While i agree shuttle can and are used to transport small stuff it totally doesn't fit with the hauler role it has which is from description: "Hulls capable of transporting a massive quantity of goods. Recommended for industrial or logistical purposes."

So my proposition is to remove hauler role from shuttles and just move them to another dead end branch.

On a side note i would love to see a ship search function where you can search ships by diffrent parameters or at least by roles.
And when you get results you can click on them to get moved to the appropiate place in ISIS

Oh and if anyone wants to say you can transport massive quantity of goods in a shuttle (after all no one said volume) like blueprints or skillbooks don't bother, since that would mean we would have to add hauler role to ANY ship, since at least any frigate can probably do a better job at it.

End

So how about adding hauler role to capsule as well, or rookie ships? After all those are also perfect for transporting yourself, oh wait, any ship is...

Shuttles are transport, they can carry some Blueprints, or other really small stuff.
And that's all they can do. Nothing much of it.

On the other hand pods cant transport anything, and rookie ships have guns and are meant to be a combat ship.
