This is kinda like having a military resource starbase that cannot be destroyed =D
Just threw this together and thought it might be nice.

After a lot of playing around I found a much better way of doing things and in the process unlocked a component that was previously unknown to me. I removed the whole FCS tree that I created above and replaced it with this:

{Computing ID="Sensor4"}
{DisplayName}Fire Control Systems{/DisplayName}
{Cost}500{/Cost}
{Category}Sensor{/Category}
{Description}The ultimate fire control and direction systems for our ships and fleets.{/Description}
{Details}The natural progression of any ubiquitous technology...find a way to make it shoot, blow up, or otherwise assist in killing someone...well, we did.{/Details}
{WeaponsAbility}15{/WeaponsAbility}
{Requires}Sensor3{/Requires}
{Model}sensors0{/Model}
{AIValue}2{/AIValue}
{/Computing}

After researching it, it unlocks the Sensors Mark V component which can be placed. It has a sensor ability of 3.

Hehe
Not one person found the hidden sensors mark v to be a cool discovery, not to mention the utility of the +15 weapons ability from researching FCS to get it?
I got lucky...I know...But still...

after lots of playing this seems to be a solid performer. themark 5 sensors are great. now im working on an electronic warfare suite as counterpart. Plan on having it boost defense by 15.
