I agree with using multiple sensor resolutions, I just do not see a benefit to game play to create a new sensor type with multiple resolutions.
Would the RP requirement be the sum of the individual resolutions, or plus a factor or minus a factor? Same issue with the size, and the em output would be significant. Do we have a new tech series that limits how many resolution can be supported in a suite?
I think there is currently a distinct drawback to multiple sensors on a single ship due to the fact that you cannot turn the individual sensors on and off. A suite of the type advocated would be simpler, but it would also be like putting a kick me sign on the ship using it. Asking these questions is not saying do not do it as much as recognizing that it is not a simple fix.
