Could use some help guys,

April 10, 2009 4:37 AM from

Being new to the game I've been going mad for a few days trying new things etc but when it comes to designing new ships the way i want I run out of room on them, so my question is..

A hull size "huge" gives you 150 points to use on a ship to add weapons, engines and sensors, Is there a mod anywhere that increases this number or reduces the addons size so i can add more to my ships to make them more realistic? I'm looking to use it for all hull sizes not just the "huge" hull, or if anyone knows a good guide on how to do this could you plz link.

Thanks guys, Happy modding.

To change the stats of hulls you need to edit the GC2Types.xml file. First set up a mod folder, copy GC2Types.xml into the Data folder, and then edit the entry for the huge hull. See here for what all the tags do.
