As I have gone through the many updates and suggestions, I have yet to see 1 thing that I have been holding out for....redesigned cockpits.
Many of us trading type play in cockpit view, as to better fast dock (no secrets there) However, on some vessels the cockpit shakes around a lot too (mastadon is a good example)
There are many different ways that these new cockpits.
1. Each ship could have its own unique cockpit (a lot of work, but the most visually gratifying)
2. Each ship type could have its own unique cockpit
3. A pimp cockpit command that allows the player to choose between many different types. This would also give players another avenue to spend their credits.
I know that this is such a tiny and insignificant issue, but if it was done, would go a great distance in improving the visual look of the game.

Indeed, this is one of the things I always notice when flying non-vanilla ships. :D
I think another Freelancer mod has capital ship bridges as cockpits, looked very good!
And the models are (to some extent) a bit easier to create since you don't need hardpoint balancing or a sufficient hitbox!
