One feature of armada 1 modders benefitted from, is the ability to assign more than one classlable to an odf, is it possible to re-enable this in Armada2?

could you give me a sample or link to a file where that was used in an armada 1 mod?

this could if i got this right allow to have a shipyard were to build vessel which could at the same time be a research station with research pods. i haven't heard of an armada 1 mod with that feature - if that's what you meant ryan

No mod using it was released to my knowledge but I know very little about armada1, a mod called universal armourgedan used it (but was canceled as far as I know)

I could well be wrong and have misunderstood the meaning, but even if it isn't possible in A1, to be able to do it in A2 would still be very very helpful. Modular bases that you can expand without construction ships, or improvable defencive platforms which you can build turrets onto or something. I'd personally like to combine starbases, mining bases and trading stations into a large command station which is your main station.

On the other hand, could you edit or create new classlables, that are less restrictive than some of the current ones? (I'm just bouncing ideas here, my C++ experience ended somewhere between maths calculations and basic arrays.)
