in theory it can work but i need look at the code, and if im not wrong i think build methods only effect what building material needed for construction. but i will look into it. no promises,

The build method I am referring to is the production method, in game it is the "preferred build method", which has universal/terran/closed loop for selection. Adding production method does not require adding custom modules. It only needs to add a new production method in the wares.xml, and then do the same as Egosoft did in DLC for Terran (use Terran material to build missiles or drones), to add new production methods for all these station modules. It will literally only applies to players, as only players can switch production methods in game.

i have to look into that, but i think this would not help the AI to much becouse most of the waiting is not building but delivering building materials, which AI still sucks at it. and also there is GOD script that limits AI. so yeah AI still build faster but not see any difference in my testings

I think a “player” build method could made it happen. It is possible to add a functional new build method now.

Player and NPC all effected it, i don't think there is a way to make a player only without making custom modules.

Player only or NPC too?
