Perhaps this can already be done and I don't realize it because I haven't been pursuing my faction quests yet, but it would be cool if you could "conquer" a system and the faction colored highlight would grow to encompass the conquered system.

Not that it would make that much difference but could be fun and add a bit of flavor to late game play.

I guess the first question I should ask is will a newly added mod show up on a load game or do you have to start a new one?

Anyway, I created a mod for a new light cruiser more my style. I followed the guide and used the crab as the base model and renamed it. I have a mod and it shows up in the mod list and I have it activated.

However, I flew around to where the crab light cruisers were sold and couldn't find any of my new hulls. Any guidance ? More info needed?

I've flown to more than a dozen different planets of varying tech levels and I simply can't find a light that speaks to me. I prefer beam weapons and a combat ship (I have a few transport hulls tucked away in different systems for when I want to mine/trade) and I swore I saw one somewhere but I think I imagined it. Wish there was a list of light cruiser hulls that I could peruse online to know If I should bother to keep looking or just bee line to heavy cruiser.
