(and don't want to drag up the original thread I started awhile back) Can you add Standard Movement ability to a non-engine component and still have it work with the game w/o setting off the max engines limit? I.e., instead of using extra movement on that bridge module use standard movement.

Oh well, I can find out when I get home.

I tryed the standard movement stuff first. I couldn't get it to do what I wanted. Then I tried bonus movement. That too didn't work. Finally I found the extra movement thing...wish more stuff worked like that does. It would be handy, as all reading this thread can see.

Ayep. Tried it briefly and found that the bridge component was counted as another engine and counted towards the max engines.

Hey, would changing the val2 allow you to stack the Stealth Armor and ECM bonuses?

What else does the Val2 thing work for?

That's what i ment by wishing more stuff worked like the extra movement.

Haven't tried those component abilities like that, I thought it was specific to the extra movemnet ability, but go ahead and try it if it works, let us know, you will have found a very useful modding tool.

Solar Sails don't stack? The text associated with their description explicity implies (is that an oxymoron?) that they do.

Nope. Multiple sails do not stack. They have the same Val 2, so they won't combine. You could make a secondary sail component with a different val 2, I suppose, to make 'em stack.
