Has something to do with the XML files, I haven't done it in a while and I'm no expert, but notepad ++ will be your best friend in this situation. Just changing values is pretty simple in the faction xml files - I changed the amount of TIE Hunter squadrons available per Escort Carrier for example (made it OP but beside the point) it didn't take long at all,  but maybe just a little guide on it here on the forums would be amazing.

First things first, this should have gone to the Community mods page... I give you the link:

But XML is really easy to learn how to mod, but quite hard to master it. I learned almost all I know by myself from my own submod. It is quite straight forward
To make instant bulds just find the XML the unit's info is in, and look for the following line:
<Build_Time_Seconds>xxx</Build_Time_Seconds>
where X is a number. Set the number to what you wish, and done.
