you should have only 2 biome of this mod

well, that's not normal... or i don't think it is

When I added this mod the faction consistently generated already controlling huge % of the galaxy. Not sure if intended.

that's a reccurent issue with this mod, i already know it, but i don't know how to fix it, it's up to the dev of the game for that one
also, the issue is most likely related to the shapes, specifically, the one of the thrusters

My game always messed up building ships based on their blueprint, usually big ones. This often resulted in ships having their tip point 90 degrees to the side and whatnot.

done

you can expect an update with new ships and a factory structure tomorrow

i may try something in the future (future being an undetermined time)

i can't agree more with you

I love the colors, and the launcher armor is cool too. Only thing I would criticize is that every ship is shaped the same. The square blocky style is good but different wing shapes and positions would be good
