I've had this really cool idea floating in the back of my head for a while. No clue if it's feasible or not.
Imagine an alien race. They're not just aliens that build ships, though. They're organic ships that grow and breed.
Each of these alien organic starships can "upgrade" itself in various ways. This is where my questions come in.
As it is now, can the modding capabilities of this already very cool game support:
- Replacing weapons and (for ships with flight decks) fighters programmatically
- Increasing hull strength programmatically
- Increasing engine power
- Increasing cargo hold space
- Adding/removing weapon hardpoints
- If changing any of the above programmatically is not possible, can a new ship be spawned with those attributes set programmatically at spawn time
- Spawning new ships ("breeding" as suggested above)
