Those who have limited space (which is most players) are constantly changing equipment for different needs. Basing mode, hack mode, rank-up/energy refill mode, scan mode, NPC mode, and PVP mode.

I know many of us don't even bother with taking off relays and energy draining weapons when ranking up, simply because it is to much off a hassle.

I would like to see an option where I could save a ship design an then reload it with one simple click. I think 2 or 3 tabs would be sufficient.

-1 if you do not want to have to flip modules around add more decks. the constant module changing is one of the prices you pay for running a ssb.

i might be able to accept it though if every time you used it every module on your ship got damaged(not just the ones changing)

Suggested many many many times. The main reason (I suspect) that something like this has never been given serious consideration by Dan is that you would in essence have 2 or more complete sets of ship data saved on the server. Meaning more memory would be required just to keep ship data, potentially slowing down the system even more.
