I managed to alter the maximum fleet points in CE (search for the current value a few times to narrow it down a bit first). It seems to stick to roughly the same place - two values in the location starting "1D" (which should be the only two starting "1D" if you've narrowed it down properly).
Unfortunately, I've had no luck altering the maximum arms permissible on each ship. Really wanted to just fill up all the slots on one, heh. I seem to have found a relevant value (ie: it'll show a value that is correct for the max of whatever ship class you're currently viewing), but altering or locking it doesn't do anything.
If anyone has any ideas on this, I'd really appreciate hearing them.
Edit: Actually, sod it; not worth it. The SP campaign in this is crap and doesn't even let you use all the ships.

Yeah, i too have figure something out there but not the max arms.
You sold it? Well it is a indie game and it only cost as much as you get and it is a MP if you want.
