Removing the cap on system upgrades is very possible. If I recall correctly you’ll need to change a number in a ‘maxpower’ tag or something like that, and add the cost of the extra upgrade levels. Custom ships can start with more than the maximum number of systems, but you can’t change the limit to ...

Common mistake, you put the dlcBlueprints.xml.append file straight into a .ftl file. You need to place that file (any any other .xml.append file) into a 'data' folder, and place that folder into a .ftl file, similar to how its formatted in ftl.dat.

I managed to unpack the ftl.dat file using Slipstream, and I've looked around in there, and to my surprise I can't find the variables for weapons and their stats. Is there something else I need to do? Have I just missed them somehow? Is it impossible to edit weapons by modifying them in the ftl.dat...

Unfortunately stuff like that is not possible to implement easily. Conventional FTL modding can't add much new functionality to the game, especially not anything like you're describing.

Great tool! I just did a run where fuel cost over 100 scrap, but my ship had a halberd that took 5 seconds to charge and did 4 damage per room lol Oh wow, lol. Reminds me of a time I got a burst laser 2 with 4 damage and 3 cooldown. That run went well until I ran in a mini beam with the same stats....

This mod has some slight UI issues with the latest versions of FTL. So I've made a small update that fixes said updates.
Here it is

Also, the restart button is back. No way to remove it now, just don't restart the game. You'll need to go back to the hanger for a restart.

Maybe targeting the ship with less than seven rooms crashes the game? That’s exactly the problem. This is sad! Is there nothing that can be done? No workaround? Maybe I can turn it into a faux Flak? Burst weapons would work, because they do for the Fed C. If you don't want to do that you'll have to...

That’s exactly the problem.

Turning the resizing interpolation to none would stop the blurriness, but it has its own problems regarding black outlines.
For me, I use that and just redraw the outlines.
For the scale tool, you can change this on the bottom left once you select the scale tool.
