RE-RESCALING
So, I recently got new information in the rescaling. So it turns out the carrier class ships in this game is supposedly around 2000m long so the 1 gaming distance unit equaling 1.5 meters can't be right. It is more like 1 game unit is equal to 12 meters. This would reduce the size of all ships significantly. There are pros and cons to doing this.

Pros: The ships would be a lot less bulky in battle. I've noticed this in fleet battle. Because of their size, the ships have a hard time getting around and are constantly bumping into each other to try and fire at enemies.

Since their size would be reduced I will also reduce the Mass accordingly which will make speeding up to max impulse much faster.

If I did rescale all the StarFleet ships, I would just rescale and nothing more. All weapons, ship class and all other stats would stay the same.

Cons: Ships would no longer dwarf other ships in the SPGW world. In fact the galaxy class starship at around 640m long would be a little over 1/4 the size of a Carrier in SPGW. Supposedly the devs stated that a carrier ship is 2000m in length so I am using that as my Reference point.

I don't want to keep changing these ships if the changes are not wanted. So I would like your imput on this descision. I will post this on all related Mods and wait about 3 days to see what you guys think. Do I make the change to make it a more accurate size? Or Do I keep it how it is.

Let me know what you guys think. Thanks for subscribing by the way. I always welcome feedback.
