This is something I brought up sometime ago which Aitarus said could be/is possible to do. I always felt that the fighter and bomber squadrons were rather few in battles and you had to dedicate just about every slot on a Carrier to make it feel reasonable. I'd like to have more of them, without tweaking the modules themselves in terms of balance, just visually.

Now I've no modding skills so this is kinda more a request or if anyone would like to help me, should this be possible to achieve.

Hey Numinumi!

We toned down the number of fighters/bombers for technical reasons: performances, avoidance algorithm, etc.

After quickly looking into the code, I believe the number of ships spawned is given by the property BaseUnitsCount.

It is defined in ES2 install Folder/Public/Simulation/Battles/SimulationDescriptors[ModuleSquadron].xml, and you can override SimulationDescriptors such as ModuleSquadronBomber3Strategic4 to increase the value added to BaseUnitCount.
