Default STM shuttlecraft mod

I really like Atrocities Star Trek Mod, it's about the only thing I play. Here lately, I've been wanting to make some minor improvements to it, specifically the way shuttlecraft and fighters are set up. It took editing almost fifty files to get the ai to work with it, but it works.

I set up the tech tree so that "Support Craft" has five levels, one for each size of shuttlecraft. At Support Craft III, the Fighter tech tree becomes available, which is also in the Support Craft category. The long-range race-specific fighter beam weapons require fighter technology (and the appropriate beam tech level), but the basic phaser/phase cannon only require shuttle tech.

Also eliminated some duplication of cockpit/life support componants, modified the hanger bays, and changed what appeared to be a typo in Small Phase Cannon-I weapon damage table.

The shuttle sizes have been spread out more evenly between 10kT type-I and 65kt type-V. Fighters still range from 20kT to 40kT for normal, and up to 70kT for Warrior.

Edit: doggone ISP size limits! The attachment in the heading section above works. Atrocities STM v1.9.1.2 with (about 27meg)
