Fix Runabouts Please

I bought a runabout 4-5 months ago, I was psyched and impressed that it was in the game and purchasable, and I really thank the devs for that. I was really disappointed at the time though that you couldn't rename the ship or visit the bridge of it. I figured it would be fixed eventually though so I tucked it away.

Since then I've noticed a lot of additional bridges being added to the C store, and a lot of new ship designs coming out, etc. I dusted off the runabout today and saw that you still can't access the bridge, or rename it. It's just a shame because the runabout is a cool idea, just doesn't appear to have been finished.

I guess my point is that I hope in the future you can finish the things you've already implemented before adding more. Having a runabout is pretty cool, but I'd like to be able to "visit the bridge" or rename it, two issues that I've seen a lot of people raise over the past few months and I assumed it would be fixed eventually but as of today it appears it hasn't.

Stuck this in controls/UI as I'm not really sure where else to put it.

Thanks.

    I fully agree on this. I like to fly the runabout bridge-wise on the historical mission through the DS9 wormhole. and it should be the Orinoco or Yangtsekjang ... whatever, but not just Runabout.

    Type:

    /RenameShip "U.S.S. Danube Class Runabout" "U.S.S. <shipname>"

    I would like to be able to go to the Runabout interiors and eventually have some interactive controls/consoles within it, and to see some Runabout only missions, where taking a starship isn't practical or necessary, and/or beaming down isn't feasible. There were multiple episodes of the various Star Trek shows that support situations like those. Even on TOS/TNG/ENT there were episodes based in shuttlecraft/shuttlepods. So why not? It's in Star Trek, going back over 40 years, so some of it should make it into STO in some form or another too.
