what about an escape pod subsystem so that if say your ship is on fire completely you can shoot off a one person escape pod that means you can put said crewmember on any ship like say the kestrel that could have a pod that takes time to launch like 15 to 20 seconds or if upgraded fully 5 seconds please do not criticize me for this because we all would probably like to save our crewmembers

and to stop cheating or exploitation

you could only launch them in certian circumstances.

Indeed.
On topic: I notice that if my ship dies with crew members on an enemy ship, the game ends. It'd be kind of fun if killing the entire enemy crew allowed you to take their ship with just your boarding party as crew, but that might be a bit overpowered.
On the other hand, it could be a novel new way to pick up new ship types...
