i attached the file since i cant upload it to other image hosting sites. like i've said, we're trying to increase the supply current to around 1.5A from 0.6A. maybe we can add additional circuitry.

basically we just changed the values of components on the datasheet. The values on the figure were obtain based on the actual implementation (hardware). High input and output capacitors were to minimize the ripple on the output voltage.
Yes the switch current was up to 2A. But I'm just confused if the switch current would also be of the same range as the output current. btw, what is the switch current all about? is it same as the output current?
looking at the datasheet, it shows a sample circuit that converts a 5V input to a 12V out and has 600mA output. when we measure our circuit, the output current is (obviously) equal to the current given by ohm's law. i.e. V=IR.
but looking at figure 6, it can be seen that the main difference between them is the start up but the final output current seem to be the same. I am not totally contradicting your understanding but that's how I see it. Thanks!
I think that increasing the coil value has an positive effect on the output voltage and in a lesser extend for the curent as they make use of the energy stored in the coil and give a puls aditional on the output when the coil release its energy to boost the output the capacitor should do it more for the current
as you see the curent decrease with the increase of the duty cycle of the puls and will at a sertain moment not be in time for the total energy release time of the coil and capacitor

the current limit that decreased with the duty cycle is the switch current, right? And as I understand the datasheet, the changing the inductor value will change the frequency (with constant voltages and switch current), am I right?
You said that changing the coil value has a positive effect on output voltage, what is that positive effect? I just prefer to maintain the same output voltage (12V) since it is in accordance with the specs of the beacon.
