Default Re: Big ship supremacy... Can little ships keep up?

My Proportions mod is not the only one that addresses all of this well, is it?

I'm quite happy with what I did, although I have a little more left to add (i.e. scale mounts for small ship control components would be good, and the larger mounts may want to be made a little stronger). QNP, scale mounts for some components, combat and maintenance mods based on size, armor adjustments. Does the job nicely. The Proportions 3.x AI is broken, but Proportions 2.x (or AIC mod) has almost as good handling of ship sizes, and the AI DOES build a mix of ship sizes - you just have to make AI designs by type and script it to build a mix of specific sizes. (Well, it's a pain, which is partly why Proportions 3.x AI is still broken, because I haven't bothered, but it is possible to do.)

Nah, many other mods address these issues as well. P&N, CB, Adamant, the Art of War mod that was never finished, etc.
