Default modding question: How to limit number of components per ship ?!

Hey everyone, is there a way to limit the max number of component X on a ship, other than the "restrictions: once per vehicle" option ?!

thanks !

not really. you can restrict the hull size, but you cant flatly state that "this hull may have only 10 components, no matter what size they are."

if you made all components the same size but with different costs and damage capacity, you would be implicitly imposing a fixed component restriction with each hull...

sorry, im not talking about restricting the components to the hull, but rather restricting component X to X times. i.e. this component can only be put 4 times on a ship. or 8 times. or whatever times.

Restriction := X per vehicle

Where X is an integer from 1 to 10

Only you have to spell the number out - e.g. "One Per Ship"

Values must be capitalized: "Two Per Vehicle", not "two per vehicles".
