I think this should work although I havent tried it yet. Any opinions??
You most certainly can. It is not that hard to learn how either, but it does take a lot of work - you will need to edit lots of files. You need to make a new racial trait in RacialTraits.txt and add new tech in TechArea.txt files, then you will need to make new components and facilities in the components.txt and facilities.txt files and associate them with the new tech you have put in (remember that each new racial trait tech has its number that must be included in the files). And finally you will need to make new .emp files (the old ones don't work anymore) and play-test the new components to see if there are any bugs or balance problems - this can take longer then making new stuff, but it is necessary.
