Warship Redux with Rangefinder

1.2.5 compatible WARSHIP REDUX with Rangefinder is a major military vessel overhaul that adds 8 new ships and alters the construction system so that new ship classes are available at each spaceport level. Not save game compatible, you must start a new game for the mod to take effect. This Version of Warship Redux also contains the "Rangefinder" mod by Atanvaryar with his kind permission. It is an excellent mod that adds a second combat computer which allows you to set a ship design to always maintain a certain distance from its target. I am releasing this as a separate mod because adding this functionality will corrupt save games started before it was installed. This mod will be updated alongside Warship Redux so you will lose nothing by switching over to it. *** NOT SAVE GAME COMPATIBLE AND WILL CORRUPT SAVE GAMES STARTED PRIOR TO ITS BEING INSTALLED *** ##### SHIPS ##### *8 New ships added: all carefully balanced so as not to be out of place with the vanilla ship types. All species types (including plantoids) are covered. SCOUT: A small recon ship; very lightly armed but fast and cheap to make. Ideal for checking out nearby star systems for the presence of hostiles. FRIGATE: The largest non-capital warship; essentially a stronger and heavier alternative to the destroyer. ESCORT CARRIER: A light carrier vessel; used as a platform for multiple strike craft, the Escort Carrier is a smaller and cheaper alternative to the massive Fleet Carrier. HEAVY CRUISER: Larger and more heavily armored than the standard Cruiser, the Heavy Cruiser neatly fills the gap between its smaller brother and the Battleship. FLEET CARRIER: A massive vessel used as a platform for strike craft. Expensive and time consuming to build but tremendously powerful in combat. DREADNAUGHT: A super-sized version of the Battleship; only the wealthiest and most powerful empires can afford to utilize these mighty weapons as their flagships. SWACS: The Spaceborne Warning and Control Ship; this is essentiall
