Have you thought about a visual way of in-game communicating ideas and information to your fellows, such as jump point locations and ship mods etc...? My thinking was, in a hanger or ship location you could tell your associates to gather around, and enter into a "map/projector" mode that you would physically control your avatar's gestures to "point" at information displayed, and other players could save onto their own mobiglas?asked by Madrun Badrun

Yes and no, we HAVE thought about it mostly in conjunction with capital ships. So if you're on your Cap-ship leading your armada, and you're in the large bridge part and the admiral can say all ships converge on this target on a holoscreen, so all the ships in the fleet see that and can follow the directions given on their own maps, yes. It's all part of the command and control system. But concerning smaller ships like constellations etc, maybe we'll have a map that a captain can pull up in kind of like a party-mode, where you could see where things are clicked etc.

I could see that kind of system working on a Carrack especially with that giant map-room thing, sketching out plans with a holo-pen with friends.

It seems to be standard MMO fare.

Seems like something you could do on anything, command and control would be present, it's all been built into the holo system.
