[Mod Request] functional copilot seats

[Baconfortress]

So I love the new cockpits, particularly the paranid ones on their M class ships.
It is a real pity the copilot chairs are useless, as I like riding around on an autopilot ship while doing management things.

Ideally a mod would exist permitting access to these chairs, and then have the in game consoles then function as the map or what have you. It would be the same as the dedicated map screen but shrunk to the console to increase immersion.

Similarly having one be a tech chair and the other tactical, you could have one displaying target info, weapon status, etc

From my understanding this is very doable, though I do not have the skills to do it.

+1 cool idea!

Hm when i was joining my captain on a ship with 3 seats in the cockpit i got a bit annoyed that i wasn't able to use the free seat and had to stand in the back.
I've got enough things planned already, but i really hope someone takes this on as it would be a great addition for immersion.

Yes please. Shame this idea is not a standard feature.

+1 allthrough I think it won't be an easy one.

Aside of my Sound-Immersion Request... i would recommend that Idea too!!

I managed to get the other seat to be interactive and able to "sit" on it but sitting in a pilot chair (as in any chair deemed interactive for the player) puts your camera in the regular pilot position and you're still able to pilot the ship. The changes needed are beyond me. Does anyone knows if there's regular chairs in the game you can sit on ? (as in stations or bars) maybe that would help
