Greetings.

It has been a couple of days since I Last posted, here is the latest info:

Most of the data files are done, with a few minor exceptions I hope to address during this week. School has also resumed this week, so that will slow things again. However, I'm hoping to have a beta Version to some testers very soon, so that's good. I've also worked on putting together some temp ship sets until I get the original ones more complete.

One of the files I've worked on was happiness.txt, I've added several more happiness types to better correspond with the different races:

Neutral: ?
Capitalist: Ferengi
Collective: Borg
Expansionist: Cardassian
Peaceful: Federation
Religious: [N]
Warrior: Klingon, Romulan, [N]
Xenophobic: Dominion, [N]

[N] denotes use by a neutral race.

I've also modified cultures.txt to a similiar degree as above.

Due to the method that I've arranged the vehiclesize.txt file (custom hulls for most of a race's ship sizes), I just realized I will have to do the same for the neutrals (i.e., making a unique neutral technology trait), since I don't want neutral default sizes appearing in the ship lists of the major races. I'm also thinking of reducing the sizes of the neutral ships, since you don't expect the Bajorans to be cruising around in 1000kT ships. I'll probably top the big ships at 500-600kT in size.

That's all for now.
