Saucer/Chevron/MVAE Separation; making them work together, and better.

The original thread is in the Federation Shipyards, if a moderator could move it here and merge it to this one it would be appreciated.
As for the digest form:
"The MVAE's special-flight-mode-toggle lets the player fly the MVAE in one piece or as any of the three pieces it can separate into (alpha, beta, gamma).
The Saucer/Chevron separation toggle currently only lets the player fly the stardrive of a ship.
Proposal: Leverage the MVAE's "multiple-selection" component on the Saucer/Chevron separation (allowing the player to fly the saucer or stardrive). Then leverage the "destroyer or science" toggle from the Dyson Science Destroyer on the MVAE/Saucer/Chevron separation abilities where boff stations are altered (however slightly it may be) to fit the new situation.
(see original thread HERE for all of the examples)
One example from the original thread:
The "Galaxy" Exploration Cruiser Retrofit (ECR) currently has this seating:
[][],[][][][],[][][],[][],[]
"Saucer-mode" could have this seating:
[][],[][][][],[][],[][][],[]
"Stardrive-mode" could have this seating:
[][][],[][][][],[][],[][],[]
This proposal can be leveraged with "separation features" on any ship as implied by davidwford who brought up the Haakona (which I only thought about after posting and leaving) who also offered up another, novel, candidate (which I was reserving mention of for a thread on "how to greatly enhance the leveraging of hangars, or 'away teams in space'") - the Odyssey-Aquarius combo:
MODERATORS: Can you be so kind as to move the Federation Shipyard thread over here and merge it with this one? Thanks!

I support the suggestion to choose commanding either the Saucer or the Stardrive. And for the Oddy, if the entire set is equipped, then the option of commanding the Aquarius would be an "upgrade" to the Cheveron's Separation power.

Proposals for using in-game features to improve: (1) the "Phaser Lance" (and other underrepresented/missing "big guns"); && (2) separation systems on all ships that have them; && (3) training boffs in captain only powers by using boffs as pack-mules; OR to add functionality like: (4) "Away Teams Of Space Ships";

The example layouts are example layouts and it is fairly clear that they are there as examples to express the concept in an easy-to-read format.
That reality aside, explain "OP" within context if you would be so kind as to humor the "court".

No, you may be talking to yourself.

Is it really talking when its text?

BTW... bumping threads is against Forum rules. It's only unofficially allowed in the fleet forums.

Funny, your words initially indicate you want the link I already provided in the original post, and have excised into a quote below for dramatic effect:
But the full subtext says, among other questionable things, that you really want consultation in the form of a website accessible resource concerning the proper user of ellipsis to complement the inline demonstration above; to whom shall I address my invoice to at Cryptic?

The Garbage bin, becuase that is where it is going to go, just like all ideas in the forums, and especially bad, stupid or impossible ideas.
The moment your posts are not out-and-out willful efforts of yours to maliciously violate various forum rules (e.g. trolling, flaming, off-topic comments, derogation, ...) the server may crash. How sad for you it must be to be putting so much effort into doing so on these forums where the game is so erratic nobody will notice a random crash. *golfclap* on securing your place in history as the singularly most irrelevant and inconsequential pseudo-anonymous forum user on the planet.
Now if you will excuse me I have important people to respond to, you know - people trying to provide feedback to the developers to make this game better even in spite of those who are like you.
