Cosmoteer 0.11.7 is out so I will release an updated version soon.
It will work with v.0.11.5+ but you will have to adjust the main configuration files by hand yourself. Basically copying and merging the new mod.txt with the old en.txt, priorities.txt and Terra.txt. (will repeat this again).
I will re-balance some of the weapons as they are rated too high as is. And I will fork the photon torpedo into the three standard (Star Trek Federation) versions for better firepower control and different building options. Testing and creating the graphics may take some time, though. It'll be a major update.
