If you're talking about the tech tree accessible from the Droid Log, that's generated entirely separately and honestly is quite a faff (partly why the one in the mod is not altogether accurate).
I can't get them to appear in the NR's tech tree in galactic conquest art of war.

<Political_Faction>factionname</Political_Faction> line too
This doesn't really do anything.
Also, make sure you change the name of stuff when you're trying to make new versions of it. Otherwise, if you have two of the same object (as far as the game's concerned) it will end up crashing or having weird behaviour at some point. Copying from one file to another (ie Remnant space units to NR space units) doesn't really change how the game reads it; there's nothing different about those files and they have nothing to do with which faction gets whatever is in them. They exist simply as a way for us to more easily organize things. In the base game, everything was organized into files for Capitals, Frigates and Corvettes agnostic to factions, and the Underworld units were all in their own individual files.

I see now, didn't know how the tech level thing worked, I got it finally working I think as its showing. Thank you very much for the information. While Im on the topic for some reason the New Republic can't build Y-wings in era 1. Is this intentional or is it a bug and if so how can I correct it?For Y-Wings, this is intentional. By this point in SW History, they were still used but largely were out of production, a point which the Thrawn Trilogy directly addresses at some point. Those still being used would tend to be the ones already stationed somewhere. This is why we don't have them buildable, but still have some ships, typically those available in the early eras, which have them in their complements.

Im been trying for the last few days to add Imperial Star Destroyers the New Republic's lineup but not having any luck. Lore wise the NR had some SDs in its ranks during this era and it kinda erks me that I can't build any for them besides the free one you get after invading Kuat.
Ive tried adding rebel to the affiliation of star destroyers on Remnant_Space_Units.XML and even tried copying and pasting entire ship entries from it into New_Republic_Space_Units.XML replacing Empire with Rebel in affiliation again with no luck. So far everything I tried doesn't work and I can't get them to appear in the NR's tech tree in galactic conquest art of war. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
