You could make the hull 1kt bigger, and set the "X decrease per kt" to be negative a big number.

Basically a hull upgrade...for turn rate.

Indeed.
It also applies to accelerations.


In regards to unit type names with spaces:

There are issues.
I made a "Ground Base" unit type, but components limited to "Ground Base" were also appearing on regular "Base" hulls.

Further testing shows that even "GroundBase" shows up on "Base" hulls. Looks like a substring match.

Yup, that would be consistent with how it treated my "Garrison Troop" - made it available to any other unit with "Troop" in its name.

I hoped to make a 2-D developpement flow with one axis for size and one for turn rate (2 tech influencing the hull).

So seems I have to leave this idea behind for now.

Note - issue #5 below relating to names not working in this file is fixed as of v1.13.

Issue number 5? Are you talking about the Weapon Platform bug?

[Tampa_Gamer]

No, I don't think so. I was referencing my issue #5 below in the first post regarding naming convention problems if you use something that had one of the original default names in it.
