There are tons of posts about its moddability and issues therein (but even more about UI stuff).. There are more on the more active official forums than here, though. But even so, a lot of modders send their complaints about limitations and foibles directly to Aaron, rather than post about them on the forums (which he doesn't even read). Most of the moddable nature of hte game feels rather tacked-on, as if Aaron was designing it to do exactly what he wanted, then just put a bit of interface calls in text files. A recently discussed issue (on IRC) was being unable to specify just how many fighters get launched at a time from a fighter bay (all you specify is unit type and the rate in ms one fighters is launched). Luckily we found that duplicating the ability would get us what we wanted, but it shouldn't have even been necessary with better data format design; its an artificial limitation of abilities only having two "Amount" lines. Then there were clever things like monsters that grew in power the "older" they were, that got axed when Aaron started caching component values at design time for speed purposes... You don't even want to know how much insanity I ran into working on FQM...
