Default More \"Advanced Storage Techniques\" / Modding

As a follow up to my previous post on AST I tried to mod the ability for more facility space back in. I used the following change to RacialTraits.txt with very interesting results:

Name := Advanced Storage Techniques
Picture Number := 0
Racial Cost := 1000
Number Of Abilities := 2
Ability 1 Type := Storage Cargo Space Percent
Ability 1 Description := Planets can store +[%Amount1%]% of normal capacity.
Ability 1 Scope := Galaxy - This Player
Ability 1 Range Formula := 0
Ability 1 Amount 1 Formula := 25
Ability 1 Amount 2 Formula := 0
Ability 2 Type := Storage Facility Space Percent
Ability 2 Description := Planets can hold +[%Amount1%]% more facilities than normal capacity.
Ability 2 Scope := Galaxy - This Player
Ability 2 Range Formula := 0
Ability 2 Amount 1 Formula := 20
Ability 2 Amount 2 Formula := 0
Number Of Requirements := 0

With the change above my home world went from 20,000Kt of falicty space to 44,000Kt. I adjusted and tested the Ability 2 Amount Formula to 2, 1 and 0.2 to see what would happen. At 2 I got 40,400Kt of space, at 1 I got 40,200Kt and at 0.2 I got the standard 20,000Kt. Interesting.

I also made this change to CK's Blance Mod and saw the same thing with facility space as expected, but the cargo space shot off the scale to something like 96,000Kt.
