Heres my last suggestion lets call it more like an idea to keep in mind.
I've been noticing how before I found DarkSpace there was at a time there was a depot in space. Hows about reborning that and instead of making a shipyard in space you dock with it in space and instead of having a depot on the planet you make one in space. It is only a idea but a idea to keep in mind.

hmm good points, thatd be cool to see the old home system gates turned into a giant Sector command starbase or something.. cus thatd be better than wondering were are we getting these ships from?

well i have always wondered how they build such huge ships on such small planets and how many shipyards they would need for all the ships that are out there...

I believe they plan to eventually re-integrate space-bases into the game, and probably even relatively soon (on the time table, of course -- but anything on the time table usually takes quite some time  ). I, however, doubt that Shipyards would be put into space (they plan to integrate only defensive bases, depots, and sensor bases, I think). What's to prevent some ICC engineer from building a Yard out in space near Sol, and using it to launch a massive invasion? Would a Yard have the resources to supply such an invasion? Probably not, and supplying the base with resources is basically worthless, since you could just be taking Dreads instead of resupply ships and hitting them in Sol while you're already there.
However, because it would be so cool to see space shipyards, it might be a good idea to allow them to build ships up to Frigates or Destroyers or play some limited role.
Or something....

He's kinda talking about Shipyard platforms, which aren't being put in. The platforms are basically defensive structures.

I think instead of spawn gates they have shipyards(see:mobile tents) that spawn ships.
but that really doesn't relate to the MV....hmm...It WOULD be go to have tempory shipyards..if they could spawn just frigates and below...that would be balanced, right?
