Advanced AI Upgrade - 1 add mount + 10 tonnes cargo - this needs the Advanced AI Computer - this gives +30% to ship systems -c500

Emergency Medical Hologram - 1 add mount makes your med bay 20% more effective - c 1000

Advanced Tactics Computer Upgrade - 1 add mount + 10 tonnes cargo space - this is an upgrade to the ATC - can track upto 100 ships including fighters and missiles - adds +50% to AFD and AMD and also adds +30% to weapon hit chances - c800

Deflector Dish - 1 additional mount or 1 external mount - Enhances the range of all ships sensors by 50% - c 300

Sensor Array - 1 add mount + 1 external mount - these are upgraded ships sensors allows scans of upto 1 light year - c 2000

Lateral Sensor Array - 1 add mount + 3 external mounts - this gives a ship 360 degree Sensor cover can be used with deflector dish and Sensor array - c 500

Cloaking Device - 2 add mounts - as it says a primitive device that makes the ship invisible for a limited period of time - heavy drain on ships engines - increased chance of engine faliure - c 3000

Advanced Ship Probes - these extend the ships scans by as nuch as 50% and can be used at a longer range - the are basically a modified star torp - 1 additional slot or 1 external mount = 20 probes - c 50

ADMD - Advanced Med bay - turns your med bay to that of a hospital - c 5000

Advavced Engineering Bay - AEB - 2 additional mounts - this allows the engineer to monitor all ships systems from the bridge and also increases power output 10% - c 500

Holo Deck - as Star Trek next gen - improves ships morale and can be used for various purposes - 2 additional slots - c 5000

Refinery - It breaks down the incoming resources into their component atoms using fusion plasma, the broken down material is then separated into atomic groups and transported to the cargo pods. - used only on non warship hulls - uses 2 addition mounts + one external and 10 tonnes cargo space - requires the tractor beam upgrade - c5000

Astrometrichs - this makes all sensors and tactical sensors 25% more effective also extends range by 25%. this also aids in the research of new texchnology. uses 4 additional slots to work this needs all the sensor upgrades + deflector dish + Advanced ships computer - c30000

Battle Bridge - well you seen it on Star Trek the Next gen - this allows your ship to split into two. sounds funkeh heh - well not really as you will hve to design which bits would be avavilabe to which bit of the ship when it splits. bear in mind that both parts of the ship must have a drive and a space drive, good for outmanovering your Enemies - 1 additional mount and must have the Advanced Ships Computer - c25000

Hydroponics - fed up with those replicator rations - then have youyr very own garden - improves crew morale - brings the new crew man addition BOTANIST OFFICER (BO ) - also improves the air quality on the ship - 4 addiational mounts - 100 tonnes of cargo space - c 5000

However the command bridge is only available to the designated FLAGSHIP of your small fleet. - 6 additional mounts - c15000

Advanced Flight Control - 4 Additinal mounts must have the advanced AI upgrade and one of the Sensor upgrades. - this allows you to track all ships upto 1 light second away and gain an idea if they are friend or foe. This also allows you to send orders more effectively in combat and thier is less chance of your ships oppening up on you - again devised by Zappa - c40000
