What would YOU do with the Source Code
To those who dont know what the FL source code is, it's the text script that was compiled toghether to form Freelancer.exe. To use it, (WHICH I DOUBT ANYONE COULD DO NOW) you would edit the text script and compile it to form an edited FL.exe. The language, of course, is SOOOOOO mcuh easier than hexes. Maybe even almost ini like. 
What I would do with it:
1. I would get rid of tradelanes and jumpgates and put Starshatter style jump drives instead
2. I would put in a REAL dynamic economy, a clean one that changes even as you look at it.
3. I would replace the graphics engine with instant rendering mentalray. (Just kidding)
4. I would create *THE C WORD!!!*s that actually work and use energy.
5. I would put ships with moving parts.
6. I would make carrier class caps, which could use a special command view to command their flock of fighters.
No offense about saying *THE C WORD!!!*.
