Hacking Ships Speed
Without a search function, I tried to find out if it were possible to edit the ships speeds in X2.
Is it possible to change ALL ships speeds ( player and AI ) in X2?
Novas are too SLOW, as are Mantas and Vultures.

unfortunately there is a definite limit to engine upgrades. I had originally experimented with them, and after a point, it overloads the variable, and the equipment docks will screw up. Also the computer wont use the new speeds, NPC ships ALWAYS have only 2-10 engine upgrades, even if it is possible to have 70 or more.
Modding the base speed will speed up your ships as well as speeding up newly built NPC ships.

The shipwrights in Omicron Lyrae are pleased to unveil a new model of Nova, with a new, improved 200MW power generator and increasd capacity for engine tunings! Able to tolerate 25 tunings instead of only 15, these new engines can reach a velocity of 228 m/s! Want to keep up with that Hercules? Now you can! It's worth the cost! Get your new Nova today!
Read: Using the techniques on the Commander's website, I edited the TShips file and tweaked the power generator, engine tuning capacity, and price upwards to make the Nova the real Hummer of the M3 class. I also reduced the price of the Barracuda so it would stay competitive.
Yes, I could have made it even more uber, but I wanted to tweak the balance, not send it screaming into the endless abyss.

I tried Strom_Fronts Mod Kit readme, and I managed to change what I wanted, but I couldn't seem to add any gun mounts. I'd like to have at least 2 mounted in front and 1 rear turrent.
As far as I know there is no way to add gun mounts without modding the bod file. I believe you have to add the mounts to the model.

If I remember correctly...
Each ship has a Base Speed and a Max Speed Upgrades.
A Engine Tuning(speed upgrade), will always add 10% of the base speed to the ship's speed.
You can change the number of Max Speed Upgrades with scripts (I think), but you will need to modify the TShips file to change Base Speed.
