Re: VechicleSize.txt idea...
I think that a better way to allow more custom ship types would be to add abstract abilities to the game. That is, a tech that could even be a racial tech (restricted) that lets you put an ability on a ship that takes no space and no particular component. Regeneration could be an attribute of ALL components in an organic ship, that way. And Temporal tech could have faster ships without a special component or the clutter of a whole seperate set of ship definitions. And cloaking ability could be made available for a 'stealth' race like they have in Stars! One of these abilities could be greater internal capacity, probably included with 'advanced storage techniques' so that advantage could be worth more.
