Hey just a quick idea here, I dont have alot of time to flesh it out, but this was prompted by another post about speed stats being shown. Firstly Id like to agree that it would be nice if speed stats (and sensor range would be cool(and weapon range(if theres a number for either))) were shown on each individual ship.

The main idea of this is when you group a fleet of ships together and hotkey them that a stats window could be shown. Either floating as it is currently or in a designated space somewhere on the screen. (Thats actually another idea in and of itself, It would be cool to have a designated space for a stats page, so when you click on a ship to move it the stats could pop up somewhere on the screen (this could be toggled on and off)) (back to the original idea)

Basically this would show a few key things about the fleet (possibly customizable) such as (this is just a idea list if you have any other please input, or remove):
Speed of fastest ship
Speed of slowest ship
Current set speed (for when you tell them to all move at x speed so they stay together)
Number of ships (and types)
Synergies
Number of certain profiles of ships
Passives of the fleet and number of passives
Sensor range
Types of weapons (phaser, torpedoes)
Total Weapon strength
Total Defense strength
Total hull/current hull (takes into account damage, so you can see how badly damaged your fleet is at a really quick glance)

This is a good idea, would be very helpful. Being able to know exactly how your fleet sacks up would help. I feel like it would be helpful to have that designated space as well. It could go in the bottom right corner where that useless little cinematic window was in stock a2. Also I'm glad to see i wasn't alone i wanting a speed stat in-game haha.

GalCiv 2 has a very similar system to that and it's a thing of beauty :) It lets me tailor my fleets to make the absolute best of the ships I have available. I think it would be a great boon to Fleet Ops :)
