------------------------------------
This mod is a work in progress, currently it provides a number of government and lifestyle options as well as a rehaul of the default options for balance and a more diverse gameplay option.

Quick summery of changes:

Removed starting fleets, added option to purchase starting fleet with points.
Added point cost to FTL choices at start, Added option to research FTL tech regardless of gov't.
Added all types of base income for point cost.

Currently planned additional changes:
