You have to put capital ships into manual command mode first because there's no way to get the to do rolls with the helm active.

Not that I've come across, but I haven't made anything with more than 50 or so systems.

You need to edit the starsystem .def file to modify the links between systems and you need to edit the mission .def to have more than one system in a mission.

<r> The patch also adds stencil shadows. Performance with shadows enabled is roughly on par with performance before the patch. If you disable them you can push several times as many polys as before at the same speed.<br/>

<t> I don't know what any of those does (aside from penetration, which multiplies the damage passing through a shield but won't exceed the total damage of that hit). They must all be from parts of the game that aren't explicitly moddable, for explosions perhaps.<br/>

Try using Shift-Click to target other ships, especially when flying a capitol ship.
