I used DOGA 1 2 and 3 when i first found DBC but I was also dabbling with other 3d modelling applications at the same time, and yup i tinkered with making amadas of spaceships myself also. Not the extent you have taken it tho.

However,
I wouldnt talk about using a shareware product unless I have paid for it to be used in a commercial venture or a shareware game.
Thats just a blatant rip off of the japanese authors work. It is worth its value to purchase for a space or futuristic game for sure but it doesnt fit every requirement.
It would be a compliment to your game to bundle the package as the ship editor if it was possible to create your own spacecraft, if that was the case.
Just because its shareware tho doesnt mean its freeware and can be handed around for a commercial use in your project.
IF the game is a freeware game and it had a link to Doga as well as a major mention in the credits then it sounds acceptible but its up the authors of the package at the end of the day whether that is ok.

Unfortunately tho it doesnt meet every requirement eg: animation and so forth but yes its a good way to fast track your own unit based lego construction models into a project. Even the doga people reccomend metosequia for making your own DOGA parts to extend it.
here is a link to a pricing system as well should you want to register

You can clearly see theres a price tag attached to the product and I hope your not subverting it just because they offer you to view the product without many restrictions.
Id also like to point out that the shots above are some of the coolest uses of DOGA i have seen in a long time.
