Default Re: Most bang-for-the-buck hard code changes

quote:
Small: Straighten out the engines/supplies
It's silly for the same size engines to power escorts and battleships and for an engine to have the same amount of supplies as a supply bin twice its size. My solution would be to have the engines proportional to the hull size in size, cost, supply storage, and supply usage. Also, cut the supplies carried by engines in half, and double the supplies in each supply bin.
See my Pirates & Nomads v2 mod. You will be very happy, and realize that those fixes need no hardcode changes.
