Adding more ships/buildings to existing factions ?

Hi,
is it possible at all to add additional shiptypes to the game without removing existing ships or creating a whole new faction ? From what I've tried so far it seems new ships just don't show up on the UI and I couldn't find a way to change that in the *.window files or anywhere else either. There also seems to be no way to add another production building besides frigate factory and capital factory. Adding a third fighter-type to a carrier or capital ship crashes the game for me when loading the mod. There are some other limitations that can maybe worked around or aren't as important, but if you can't really add ships that would break modding for me :(

- You can add ships for the frigate factory, as it has some free slots.

- Cruisers/capitals can't be added because the UI is stubborn and doesn't start filling the second available row, nobody's been able to figure out how to do it yet.

- You can add building types for available slots, but yeah, those are the only two production buildings.

- Ships are limited to 2 different strike craft, though you can have as many different types as you like to pick from.
