It doesn't work. allot of corrupted/non functional data, could be my computer however, stuff like excel becomes corrupted if i start them up and they ruin other programs like notepad, but i'm pretty sure my faction is balanced. because whenever my largest fleet hits the HDF, both fleets take huge damage. just need to have similar stats on my first faction and its pretty much ready for release.
simply went with the idea that i have my largest ship as close as possible stats wise to the best vanilla ship in that "ship era" say the paragon,
then 75-1000 decrease in hull HP, flux, armor, dissipation for every ship that is smaller with similar gaps in ship sizes, and like - or + 2.5 to 5 in ship speed/maneuver according to ship weight and all ships have similar shield strength.
for example, my Ship.CSV, capitals to fighters from top to bottom

Any pointers there? il gladly change the values further, they are up against the factions in Uomoz Corvus right now for testing. and i'm telling you =I some of those factions are not balanced properly. lotus conglomerate for example crushes every single fleet, modded or otherwise, but i think that's just his fleet sizes, because the ships are rather balanced themselves.
EDIT: noticed that some of the ships had to much hull and flux, so I've lowered them all. better now?
