text then edit the 'RESEARCHSUBJECT_MAXCAPITALSHIPSrace#.entity' files for the max capitals

text then edit the 'RESEARCHSUBJECT_MAXSHIPSLOTSrace#.entity' files for fleet capacity.

do this for each of the 8 levels and three races then put the updated files into a mod in your sins mod folder(for vanilla you also need copies of all the other sins files in the mod folder)(for entrenchment/diplomacy the only extra files you need are the entity.manifests) then start your sins/entrenchment/diplomacy go to options/mods enable your mod and apply it, then play

An easier way is to change your gameplay.constants file.

Go to your babylon 5 mod folder, it will be in C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods-Entrenchment v1.05\Babylon5\GameInfo. There may be a few small differences, but you should be able to find your way. Some folders may be hidden, so you may hav to adjust your folder settings.

Once there, find the gameplay.constant file and open it with a text editor, notepad works great. Find the lines

fleetSupplyData-Large
        fleetSupplyScalar 1.25

Change the fleet supply scaler to your perferred amount. If you want two time the normal fleet supply, change it to 2. Then when you select large fleets ingame you will have the twice the fleet supply as normal.

Also, because you expressed concern, as long as you're running new versions of entrenchment or any version of diplomacy, you can load mods on top of each other. There are some possible complications, so it'd be best to look around the forum, but you could possibly create a fleep supply minimod and run it at the same time as the babylon 5 mod so that you don't actually change the babylon 5 mod. That way you can turn the fleet supply mod off and still play other people online with the babylon 5 one.

EDIT: This won't increase the number of capital ships allowed. The only way to do that is with the research file harpo mentioned.

That's true, harpo, but it's changing 1 line every few months or so rather then 8 files once. So if there's less then 8 updates my way is better.

You could with the fleet supply mod simply by changing the gameplay.constants file, as I elabortated in my 1st post. However, if you want capital ships too then you need change all 8 capitalship crew research entities.
