Title: Change name of standard weapons on CapShip
Post by: bomb3rman on January 14, 2017, 10:37:59 am

Let's say I have a Leviathan I use in my missions. I can take the ships.tbl from the original game, put it in my mod tables-folder, open it and change the weapons as I like. This works and the Leviathan has the weapons I wanted it to have in the game. But there are still the old names displayed. (Example: I changed the beam weapon at the front to a Point defense turret in the tbl.file. But when I focus on it it is displayed as "beam weapon" in the mission. But it shoots like a Point defense turret...)

I'm stuck here... Any ideas?

There is a change-subsystem-name sexp you can use to modify that to whatever you like. :) (Change -> Subsystem and Health)
