Adding ship classes?

Is it possible?

from Sins Forums

I don't mod. Now that thats out of the way, i was wondering. Is it possible to add ship classes? Built in classes are, ofcourse, (small) frigate and cruiser (big) battleships. Could you make more? Here are some examples (small) frigate, destroyer, cruiser, heavy cruiser, battlecruiser, support cruiser (big) light cap, standard cap, heavy cap, titan. If it is possible, them modders are no long stuck with 9 frigs, 9 cruisers, and 9 caps. Agian, I have never modded so I have no modding experience.

Basicly from the modding perspective there is only 2 classes frigates and capitals. The difference is the way their file is built and other limits like only capitals can get experience and frigates can be deployed by abilities while capitals can't. Also Only frigate type files/entities can be build in the factory, while only capital files/entities can be build in the capital shipyard. You can implement more classes by giving ship different research requirements so that there are some that you start with and then there are those who require more resources and higher level of research.

I hope that answers your question.
