Balancing power when making new ships

Hello there,


I was just wondering if there are any programs or methods in balancing out the power of your custom ship? In the Misc_equip.ini, I can edit my ship's power compacity and charge rate as you know, but sometimes it's hard to give a good estimate of a power rating. You got to always take into consideration the max level of weapons it can carry and how many of those weapons.

This part of modding always drives me nuts. Is there any methods or programs that help with this? Thanks.

See the balance sheet I included with the XML Toolkit Mod, 1.2, for an example of how to balance ships from end to end, including manueverability, armor, cargo, energy production, etc.
