Overall change looks good to me. I like the idea that I can upgrade my existing mods rather than farm them all over again. Thank you for that!
My biggest concern is the availability of slicing mats. I would like to be able to slice a mod at the *very* least once a day without energy refreshes, preferably more. Please, don't make them as scarce as the ship ability mats.
Do you think you can increase mod storage in preparation for this update? Mine's been full (tier 5 only) for a while now. I really don't want to sell any of the potentially useful mods.
