hmm, trying it in Mods folder ? I modified vanilla files

Awesome solution! This mod I have to try! let me know how you feel about it, it for sure introduces a lot of micromanagement to your fleet ... don't forget that you need to apply changes from the first (and if you want to fix plural for missiles, second) post Do you know how the AI is interacting w...

please keep in mind that it is not my mod so I might be wrong, but if you want to give it a try I think this is all you need to add race_improvement_morale_bonuses.spice_monger.markets, race_improvement_morale_bonuses.scavenger.markets, race_improvement_morale_bonuses.gaiad.markets, race_improvement...
