Default speeding up construction through modding

Hello,

i have a modding question. What bothers me about standard SEIV (i mostly play TDM+FQM) is that the planets do not have enough cargo space to place weapons platforms and are to easy to hit. I also think that the 100 units per sector for mines and sats is to low. I would set it to 200 and raise the limit of total possible number of units.

Also the construction rates bothers me. In bigger games, you have to wait and wait in order to build a decent fleet with fighters and troops so i would like to speed this up so it doesn't take that long to get into a major fights

These are the settings that i changed, any comments welcome:

Settings.txt

PlanetSize.txt
==============
( basically tripling the cargo values)

Tiny planet
Max Cargo Spaces := 3000
Max Cargo Spaces Domed := 600

Small planet
Max Cargo Spaces := 6000
Max Cargo Spaces Domed := 1200

Medium
Max Cargo Spaces := 12000
Max Cargo Spaces Domed := 1800

Large
Max Cargo Spaces := 24000
Max Cargo Spaces Domed := 2400

Huge
Max Cargo Spaces := 48000
Max Cargo Spaces Domed := 3000

Ringworld
Max Cargo Spaces := 192000
Max Cargo Spaces Domed := 96000

Sphereworld
Max Cargo Spaces := 384000
Max Cargo Spaces Domed := 192000

And then for asteroids i also tripled the cargo spaces and domed cargo spaces values

Will these settings help makeing planets tougher and speed up production?
