Actually model the inside of pods

[Dabir]

I think the walls would look like the edge of the pod, there'd be some kind of floor, I guess looking like the shuttle floor in a different colour maybe, never heard of any pods with increased passenger capacity but it is a 2x2 area so maybe more seats? People can already store infinite corpses in a box in the cargo bay and that's much harder to find than dumping them in the interior where anyone could climb in and find them. For pod damage, you already have the pod health bar on your interface when you're inside it, I guess that when "The pod cockpit catches fire!" it would actually be filled with fire.
