I suppose there should be a small cargo docking port (CDP)
standard as well. Perhaps anything larger would require
special construction (and therefore would be a big deal).

How about cargo bays? What size should we look at here? Should they be
accessed by a docking port, or should they be a "fly-in" type?

Why not both kinds. I don't think we need to define any
standards for "fly-in" docks, but a CDP standard would be
useful. I am thinking of something with an opening of 80 LU
by 160 LU (roughly three minifigs tall), but an intermediate
size might be nice for smaller vessels.

If you keep your cargo in pressurised containers, there is
no need for as specific docking port.

Play well,

(...) True. Some cargo wouldn't need to be hauled aboard, just connected. Like fuels for example. (...) Agreed. They should be built to accomodate whatever they house. (...) Sounds good. What do y'all think? Should there should be at least three (...) (25 years ago, 23-Sep-99, to lugnet.space)
