In FT, I usually use all available space for systems unless the ship
needs
to haul cargo.	Sometimes I will build a ship by selecting systems I
want to
use first, then determine the minimum hull size to carry them.	This
makes
it easier to model a particular ship or genre.	Allowing excess space to
account for certain ship designs is not a bad idea though.
