Question about the tooltips
I'm messing around with the code here and I was trying to change the text description on the bottom of the screen.  Like if you scroll over the tech room door it says something 'view specs of ships and weapons'.  I found a reference to them in ..\menuui\mainhallmenu.cpp and changed them but nothing was different in the game.  Anybody found any info on these while going through the code?  My only other thought is these text lines are in another file the game reads in.

Look in strings.tbl.

 
Question about the tooltips
Yeah, I figured it out after I posted the question.  Any idea why they are defined in the source but the actual text is taken from the table?
