This is a suggestion about making ship bridges more useable.
So while visiting my ship bridge (a crossfield) I noticed the view screen was actually a window for once and not some weird flat 2d image of space, this gave me an idea that instead of flying in sector space using the external view only why can't I fly the ship from the bridge and see actual sector space through the window/view screen, I feel since most of the time when in sector space not many people are "flying" the ship, but instead using auto pilot anyway, this would go a long way to adding some immersion into the game and giving some love to the unused bridges.
Note: I'm not here to discuss the technical side of this, but I do accept there may be some hurdles.

altough I am suprised the last part seems difficult, a non-interactable copy of your bridge (just like a cutscene) would be overly difficult, could it not just be renedered client side?
Other than that this is an FCT subject. Normally they would be pretty much closed on sight, however I will leave this open just a bit longer for you @piggles#7213 for at least one more response from you. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Anyways... I'll go ahead and close this now. And like I said, feel free to ask if you have any questions.
