How to increase price of ships of which other races would buy?

And others

Hi, I'd like to increase the price of say a ship I am offering to sell to another race.

For e.g. I have this new ship design that is way better than any ship others can make, but they offer a pittyful 5k credits.

Is there a way to increase the value of these ships by at least 10X, or even better, make it depend on how good it is comparing to other ships in production.

The first is good enough though.

 

Other things I'd like to ask:

1. Is there a way for the ship combat to be more fluid? instead of awkwardly moving around and turning for no reason.

2. Is there a way to increase the scale of the ship hull sizes? I.e. Huge ship be size of a star base.

(trying to build a bigger ship will scale all the parts down when the ship exceeds the size of what the hull was designed for.

3. Is there a way to increase the trade value of a ship part?

4. Is there a way to increase the range to an unbounded range? When I try to add range to around 5000000, the range actually seemed to have a boundary which cannot be exceeded. Also Same goes for sensor range, etc.

Quoting foxthree,

Oh yes, because paying a 10000 credits for the ship is worth selling it for 4000... Im talking about modding here :/

You have to increase your trading ability to increase the price. And there are certain buildings you can go for in this respect.

I only have DL.

In DL, the Galactic Bazaar will help. It increases the perceived value of your offers by 50%.
