Here is an idea I had for using the vehicle size file’s “Requirement Min Life Support”. It might be of some use to the B5M.
How To Make Engineering Components.
1. Make engineering component for ships.
2. Make engineering component for bases.
3. Add the two engineering components to the data file. Replace life support with the ship engineering component and replaces auxiliary control with the base engineering component.
4. Delete master computer component.
5. Set life support requirement in vehicle size data file to 1.
The AI will use the engineering component to fill its requirement for life support. It is possible to add more abilities to the component but only if the abilities are not targeted by the design creation files. New abilities could be supply storage and shield regeneration.
Ship and Base Engineering Component Provided.
