Summary0019288: In-game ship reference
DescriptionSo looking at the game start screen gave me an idea. If there were some mechanism to just put a ship model in a scene with some text then we could have an in-game reference where you could see a model of the ship and then the current stats for it. This might alleviate the need for players to go look at the wiki to get real stats/balance/suggestions.

It would be a really cool way to see the visuals of the ship up close, too, and hopefully rotate the ship to really examine it closely. Orbit cam with zoom, basically. I like. :)

Perhaps this should be pulled into the UI focus group discussion.

I think the dramatic improvement to the hovertext probably alleviates the need for this. Note that we probably will need to include the information from the hovertext in the game lobby when you are choosing your starting ship (if thats still a thing)

We're adding so many ship types, and they are potentially even to be procedural in the future. I want to move to emphasizing discovery and experimentation as players go through the game.
