1.:Yes i think that should work, but u know after that u have a lot of work moving all the other nodes in pack 3d too , so i recommand to shift it to an easly coordinate like move all Z+3 or Z+3.5 .
But when doing this with a resized ship u will have to move the other nodes also a litte in Y or even X direction.
2.:maybe u could use the funnel of one of the Escort Carriers as they have two or three columns of smoke and hide them inside the funnels u make for that ship. Two or three in a row are relativly easy as u only need to import the funnel one or two times into the cosh.obj in Wings 3d and move them in -Z direction. Of course only one column of smoke comes out of the first one which is on the original position but it doesn t look to unrealistic when the ship is moving at some speed couse the column is just above the other two funnels aswell, given they are not miles away from each other on the hull.
P.S.: Markimov and Timetraveller are working on the smoke atm so it will become blacker and more dense so u wont see if it comes out of one or out of all of the funnels.
