Furthermore, it would allow players to afk or autopilot off the plane and be completely invisible to scanners no matter how hard you tried, making finding them a little harder. So as long as it can be used to afk off the plane or do completely silent trade runs outside of visual range from normal players, then no.
Well, you can't really trade much in the freighter (max about 540 cargo bay compared to the 3600 and more), that's the main point of that thing - to make freighters used as well again. Those things would not be available on the other vessels but only bombers, fighters and freighters. Preferably freighters. About avoiding interactions, well, you can still see the engine flare from like 5-7K.
My idea is simply useless, but possible, for transports and bigger, because they are visible from the 16-25K per bare eye. I need players with freighters and fighters to test the idea though (I would do snapshots with and without hud).
