NPC Fighter Bay? is it possible

basicly you would buy a fighter/s commod from the commod shop and when you dropped the fighter commod cargo in space a fighter/s would spawn next to you.

having fighters is just a matter of having enough cargo space to hold how many you want, limiting fighters to battleships cos standard fighters wouldn't have enough space even for 1 fighter.

The only problem would be spawning the fighters in space, the way around that might be using cloakable npcs with the npc wingman script.

Thoughts?

Fox and myself have considered something like this, but the issue is getting the NPCs to actually *spawn*. We could make it so your ship spewed spewed "dead" ships that didn't move and were treated like commodities, but the true issue is getting them to do stuff and all that.

We're still looking into this, though. Who knows?
