Questions about corvette cockpits and other components

Hey guys :)

When I'm building my living/organic ship bases I like to create some of my own bridge/ cockpit and furniture to go along with this "alien" feeling .

I really would like to replace the cockpits of some of my Corvettes with my "selfmade" ones. But I'm having trouble with blender bugging my corvettes and lost 2 this weekend, so I wanted to ask you guys a few things before I dare trying to do this:

I saw in a video someone's awesome pirate ship build (corvette) an he scaled the cockpit of the ship tiny and hid it. The thing was still flying in 3rd person apparently so it seems to be possible. But here my questions:

- If you make the cockpit tiny and hide it, Can you still use the 1st person (inside view) of the cockpit if ever needed or you're stuck flying in 3rd person only?

- How does it look when you fly a ship like that? is it normal 3rd person view or does it fly different? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'm unsure

- Will the other ship components (shields, reactors, etc.) still work properly if I scale and stack them all toghether so they don't bother visually? Maybe there is a few components that shouldn't be stacked toghether so idk. Also does it affect the ship's stats?

- I read about the 100 corvette pieces limit, but do you know what's the limit for decoration/base parts?

-And lastly, do lots of decoration parts also affect my stats or is it just for corvette parts?

I wish you a nice day.

Thank you HG! Being able to create and fly my own ships is a dream come true! I finally get to fly my old builds and I will be having so much fun

When I built my "Living Freighter" bases years ago I wished so much to fly them. Now I can. :D

Don't get me wrong, this ship has the manouverability of a potato and takes so much of your screen when flying, it's ridiculous! Can't stop laughing. But being able to fly my old creation felt awesome. My future builds will be so much smaller than this, for sure. And hopefully much weirder.
