Ship systems become damaged
What if after taking a certain ammount of damage, say with 20% left, your ship's systems start to get damaged? Say maybe after taking a critical hit your ships hull drops below 20% and you recieve a warning message saying: "Warning: Jump engines offline." Then of course they would repair over time so people don't get stranded in a sector, but maybe they would stay offline for a minute or so. Not only would this help prevent running, but I think it would be realistic too, the jump engines would only be one of the systems that could be lost. Maybe your auto-aim could be damaged or other things along those lines.
We already have a diagram that shows us where our ship is taking damage. The system lost could directly correspond with the area of your ship that took the critical hit.
Just an idea, tell me what you think.

"Warning, engines offline"
I'd hate that to happen to me in a duel... O.o
Good idea though, I approve.

Damnit, I knew someone got to this before me. =P
I will now hijack my own thread into a "Bigger ships should have a bigger boost sound" thread. A topic which I did not think was important enough to have it's own thread in the first place, but something I still wanted to see. =)
Oh yeah, and still hope to see that flare fix that Inc was talking about before the whole Arolte issue began.

Damnit!
Umm... I will now re-hijack the previous hijacking of my own thread into a "flares need to be toned down just a bit" thread.
And in case Harry finds a thread on that as well...
Space should be full of purple and pink polkadots. Ha! See if you can find a thread about that one! =P
