Actually, none of the Cost multipliers seem to be working for Ship Systems... that's annoying because I'm sure I had those working at some point.

No, there's not. Doing so proved too difficult to implement in the current sheet. I started a redesign of the sheet last January, and got Reconfigurable systems working but broke enough other stuff that I never got it finished off. Someday I'll get back to it.

It might involve some kind of variables export macro, but I have never tried anything like that with Excel.

There's not really a way to do it, no. I'm not sure how I could implement such a thing easily, as every time I make changes, especially to the options checkboxes, things get moved around such that it would be very difficult to track what goes where.
