Around this time the first Abh mod was unofficially completed with
ammo_bay
corner_torpedo_tube
photon_torpedo_tube
pulse_phaser
pulse_plasma
small_phaser, the first beam turret build from scratch that never was a vanilla part
twin_pulse_phaser
multiphase_shield, this would become the advanved shield and phase shield; was not included in the first release
large_thruster, this would become the antihydrogen thrusters; was not included in the first release
Roof Decals, was not included in the first release as more were added
Work actually started just one month before. The only reason I didn't release it because it would require people to edit a bunch of files themselves which I couldn't accept myself as a player.
The first release was done when the effect system was about to be introduced and I wanted to leave it for prosperity while updating it with effects.
Discounting time of inactivity and my hiatus I only spend about a year on the mod so far. About 450 parts were done in the first half and for a total of about 630 (includes removed ones and unreleased ones) so far. Of which somewhere around 120-150 are aesthetic armor and hull pieces; probably 50 more mirror parts and about the same number for variants. Which means around 200 actually different designs and ideas.
