Maybe an enhancement that actually affects fighters?

I tried testing fighters out with a friend before and after adding various combinations of advanced mods and the damage of the fighters was identical for each test.

I'm still wanting a better description of enhancements on the whole. Instead of having 2-3 enhancements that give 8% defence bonus the 'defence' part of the enhancement should be elaborated on to actually say what the exact difference is between the modules. Some people are un-aware that there is a significant difference between the defence power and the defence whatever for example. (i've forgotten the name of the 2nd one and I haven't slept in a long long time)
It isn't like it is adding alot of code, simply a String or variation of one, depending on the programming langauge used.

I was going to say a Jump Drive enhancement, that obviously the kluth wouldn't be allowed but that won't work.

Mabe bet rid of all the beam enhancements and replace them with fighter enhancements?

Other possiblities could include:
Faster JD or WH chargers ( This would be great for stat users, as stat JD's charge soooooo slowly)

Increased Armor/Shield boosters- I've noticed that def upgrades only seem to affect how strong your hull is, not your actual armor or shields.

Sensor package: would completely nullify Kluth cloak as well as ECM devices, or completely prevent a detected Kluth ship from re-cloaking.

Enhanced Self Destruct: Kinda a "Just for Fun" thing, but this would boost the damage yields of a Self Destructing ship 50 to 100%'s, making it economical for corvettes to kamikaze into hostile stations.

Additional Ammo Package: This Enhancement would be a godsend for Missile Dreads, and any ship that relies heavily on projectile weapons as well; I was thinking anywere from a 25 to 45% increase in amount of ammo carried.

I was also thinking of a whole line of "additional" packages that would range from adding extra generators while attached to additional shields, and even a additional weapon pack, adding on a single additional weapon, class appropriate, of course.

Possibly a enhancement that decreases the time required to charge equipment like ECM and EECM suits; pinging always takes so long netween pings to be much use normally.....

heh....no comments on the Self Destroy enhancement I see....

I've brainstormed a few more:

Increased Cargo/troop enhancement; make your ships carry more resources or troops.

Maybe a homing/increased damage mine enhancement? Mines are pretty redundant in DS, almost completely incapable of killing hostile ships, which kinda defeats the purpose of a minefield; no point in having mines around a strategic planet as a deterrent if a enemy can simply plow through them without taking appreciable amounts of damage.

Enhanced reload drone: a counterpart to the Enhanced Building Drone Enhancement, this Enhancement would boost the speed of the normal reload drone.
