Foundation Mods
The following mods were used as starting points and may or may not have portions still in use.
All credit for the remaining portions goes to their respective creators.
-Astronomical Names (by wolfenray73)

Known Issues
-It is best to wait for the mod to complete loading (all icons fill in from white boxes) before attempting to start a new game. Some users may experience crashing if they do not wait.
-Some things may not work correctly upon first in-game loading of the mod. To be sure, restart the game after first enabling the mod. Starting the game with the mod already enabled should be fine.
-The high number of added shipset resources (when enabled) may cause problems for older hardware.
-Balancing: There may be any number of balancing issues with the factions. I do want some semblance of balance but it's a work in progress.
-Keeping a high hexcount (eg: Colossus) hull selected or moused-over (so the design is displaying) can have significant tps performance impact.

Special Thanks
-Dalo Lorn for his help in getting to know the coding aspects of the engine.
-GGLucas for having the patience to deal with my questions on how to handle and implement some things.
-The Copyright Holders of the various materials referenced in this mod for their imagination and hard work in its original creation.
-piccolo255 for coming up with a fix for system links in map generation.
-vaaish for Oko default designs.
-Artists credits for empire portraits are containted in portrait_credits.txt.
