Indeed it would make game more interesting

Furthermore, it'd make big capships and carriers more useful and powerful as strategic weapons without overpowering them in pvp combat. Simply making any ship 'linked' to a carrier jump is a whole lot simpler then docking to it like a station.

So, if a player goes through the effort to buy a carrier, and goes through the player interaction to get a hyperdrive and enough fuel for it, then yeah, he's probably earned the right to haul a bunch of fighters around. It opens a lot of RP possibilities.

Military carrier task force moving a strike wing into position to soften up an enemy defensive fleet or create a diversion before a main group attacks. Expeditionary force blindly and boldly jumping into a new system. Or someone with a secondhand ship making a hyperspace taxi service for profit:P

'Course, there have to be a few systems you can't jump into.

Systems like Iota, the Shrine, Omega-58, Omicron-82, etc because of the implications of such

Systems like Omicron-85, Omega-41, 11, etc with massive gravitational anomalies (Black Hole, supermassive stars, etc) would also prevent jumping into or out of.

Systems like Bastille.... well, you'd be able to jump in... but not out :)

All that begins must end.
