Default Re: Wanted: Alpha testers for the AoW mod.

Haven't played it, but browsing through the data files made me wonder about:

ECM vs Combat sensors. Why do you have 5 levels of Combat Sensors at +10% per level (max +50%) and 10 levels of ECM with only +1% per level (max +10%). Are there other means by which to raise defense? Such a small increase seems like it would be a waste in research at some point.

Increased Crew Quater reqs vs. Master Computer. Requiring all those extra crew quarters (cool idea, btw) makes the Master Computer more powerful - you might want to up the cost, or something. (unless the size/benefits of the new crew quarters change -- see next comment)

500kt Crew Quarters. All the new crew quarter types you put in take up 500kt of space:
Tonnage Space Taken := 500
Is that a typo, or am I missing something? Also, it might be neat if the different types of crew quarters had more significant effects (most just give that +8% maint reduction...) And do those stack? You might want to clarify in the comp description...

Looks good, hope to find time to play...
