[Mod Request] Mobile Starbase mod

I've been looking, and i can't seem to find anything that does just this.
I want a mod that makes ALL of the starbases mobile, both in gravity well, and with research to unlock phase jumping.

I suppose if someone can tell me where to look in the game files to make it do that, I could invest some time into it.

I don't need anything fancy though. I don't care about adding a bunch of new tech stuff or shiny buttons, I just want the bases to move (partially so that i don't feel like an expensive starbase was a waste after the battle lines have moved further along the galaxy.)

Study the Vasari star base entity files. Especially the Rebel Vasari one as it is the only one that can do phase jumping. The areas you would interested in is towards the bottom.

Thanks for the starting point. I'll look into it later today. I'm just hoping someone already has something done that i can work with. Although I suppose the starbases will probably require additional balancing ... -_-

Because the Vasari starbase is a slaughterhouse, and the other two are... not.

Not if you play them right. Especially when you consider that the Vasari star base's weapons are gimped. One of the weapons is an anti-structure weapon. Hence its damage versus ships is not very high when all is said and done.
