Those graphics look tremendous! Very nice colors.
I'm totally up for some testing!
@beanie: that ship you've hit, it reminds me of the "error" I also found in the original mod. Like the ships are very deep in the water, but that seems not to affect the performance in any way. I sometimes saw some escorts speeding upon me with a slightly submerged aft deck for no reason, still fully operational. Might be the same issue with your freighter...
