Engineers Random stat gains from engineering.

[Tromador]

I am going to assume I have this wrong, as empirical data (my ship stats) say so. I thought that with the current engineering system, the stat increases/decreases were fixed, so a fully upgraded G5 module (ie with 5 ticks in the engineering screen and "This modification has been completed") would always yield precisely the same amount of stat change.

But, as I look at my ship[1], compared to an identical build on Coriolis[2] there are some differences in the G5 engineered components (e.g. the hull reinforcements). When I drill down, I see that my build has "random", whilst the other has "100%".

So I am assuming there must be some amount of randomness with engineered components. I've tried googling a couple of different word combos, but my google-fu is failing me - please can someone explain what's going on please?

I think the differences are arising because your build is Coriolis generated and build 2 is imported from the game via EDMC data

Here's an imported build of mine that has different resistances from both of the builds you've listed, in general I don't usually complete most mods as chasing that last % is usually too costly in mats for such a small return.

Sounds like an EDDiscovery/Coriolis issue, or you didn't finish engineering. All completed G5 will be the same stats now, only legacy engineering can exceed that.

My ingame stats match my Coriolis build and I can't engineer the modules further. Is there a page/listing somewhere showing what the stats for fully engineered modules should be?

You can use Coriolis for that.
