Right now community content is essentially limited to foundry, but i feel like if they opened up some more of their tools, players would quickly take to creating ship skins, components and maybe entirely new hull designs.

    They can’t release the tools that makes ships or skins due to licensing. But I wish they would open it for interface and data collection.

    Not possible. Besides the copyright & trademark issues with letting people add Cylon raiders and Firefly ships, ship sales are what keep the servers running and salaries paid.

    If they allowed custom ships, whales would not buy every new ship and the game would shut down.
