System Slot Mods

[[TRIGGER WARNING]⎠⎞:]

Are there any Mods that extend the System Slots mechanic or the max number of Slots available?

Not sure if it's possible to change the number itself it will let you buy from shops, but starting with them it's definitely possible. Just loaded up one of the mods I use for messing around, changing random stuff in the .append file and seeing what it does, replaced all instances of false with true on one of the default ships and I had ten systems active, which messed up the UI a bit, causing the second drone slot to completely cover the subsystems, was too wide in the ship upgrade screen, etc

i´d be totally ok with that. what mods are you using? or can you make a "howto"?

I switch between a lot of different ones whenever I feel like it. Mods are essentially renamed zip files, mostly with partial xml files that overwrite parts of the main ones, sometimes with images if making a different ship. Those are then patched in with Slipstream Mod Manager. The xmls are pretty easy to understand once you look at a few, I could go ahead and modify any of the default ships you'd like real quick. I think ten is almost all systems, I know it's definitely not with both medbay and clonebay, those replace each other even if you change what room one of them goes to.
