Hey man, great mod, love the concept, this is something that should be in the base game for sure. I would like to report something in case you're not aware of it. RT56 just updated and using your mod in conjunction with it for some reason creates a problem with the light cruiser batteries. On new designs they just disappear and on existing designs you can't build the ships. Can you look into it?

honestly forgotten everything about modding
You can try yourself though, just compare r56 files vs my files and copy paste the lines neccesary

Ah ok, well I know nothing about modding or coding in general, but i'll see if i can get into it.
