Default Re: PBW Mod support implemented.

Argh. Bad news. The modifier adds with others.

So putting one on a base, or two on a ship can easily give you large negative maintenance.

I will have to find out if "one per ship" will work, or whether I have to stip down my vehiclesize.txt in order to copy all ships and bases into low-maintenance Versions.
I may take the cheap way out and just copy all of the various "bridge" components into nomad-only 1% maintenance modifiers.

---------------------
Oh, yeah! After poking around blindly for a while, I found the "One per ship" restriction works under v1.35 ... once I check it on v1.41, then I'll be set.
There will just be a separate component for ships vs. bases,and each will reduce the maintenance on the vehicle to 1%.
A race with maxed out v1.41 maintenance reduction could concievably have as low as 0.2% maintenance. (Meaning a standard bridge costs exactly $1 per turn )
