"Is there any way to limit certain weapon mounts in the CompEnhancement.txt to certain weapon types. For example Gauss Weapon mounts for only Depleated uranium cannons. "
Yep and its fun as heck, you can also use the family line for such things as robo-miners, engines, weapons of all types. Just check out the latest Version of the 'Deathstalker's Mound Mod', its up on Fyrons website.
These were the 'new toys' added a bunch of patches ago:
"NewOptions: (as of Patch 1.78)
Shield Percent (Optional)
Percentage modifier to the shields generated by this component.
Vehicle Size Maximum (Optional)
The maximum tonnage size the vehicle can have to allow this mount.
Comp Family Requirement (Optional)
A comma separated list of the component families which can use this mount.
If this field is not present, then all families can use this mount.
Number of Tech Req: (Optional)
The number of Tech Requirements that are for this enhancement. The Tech requirement
determines the technology level an empire must have before this enhancement
becomes visible to be used in designs.
Tech Area Req X: (Optional)
For each of the Tech Requirements, this is the tech area of the requirement.
The X is the number of the requirement.
Allowable values for Tech Area Req:
A name from the TechArea.txt file.
Tech Level Req X: (Optional)
For each of the Tech Requirements, this is the tech level in the given area
that must be reached.
The X is the number of the requirement.
Allowable values for Tech Level Req:
A value from 1 to the Maximum Level for this Tech Area as defined in the
TechArea.txt file."
