Re: Rahu name inconsistency
I think the problem with changing it is that it would break compatibility with any existing third party missions that use the Rahu.

I use a modified table set for all my missions though and made this change in there several years ago.

 
Re: Rahu name inconsistency
Hmm?  Display name is different from reference name, it shouldn't break ****.  But yes, people will complain... which is why I have my own .vp to fix stuff SCP won't.   :nod:

Re: Rahu name inconsistency
Anyone who has a problem with it can use the Alt. NAme feature (which has been there since retail) to change it to SG wiothout breaking compatability.

Re: Rahu name inconsistency
i have changed the SSG into SG in a prototype ships tbl mod.
We have the same problem with the Superdestroyers,which are designated SD instead of SSD.
Terran freighters are designated GTFR,but Shivan ones are GTFr.
And then the Ma'at,which is designated PVFR!
I know that the Ma'at is old but if 200 Ma'at still serve the GTVA designate them all as PVFR...
Maybe they are time machines?!?

Re: Rahu name inconsistency
Uh, I seen no shivan freighter with GTFr designation. Mephisto has SFr designation, Asmodeus also has SFr designation.

Re: Rahu name inconsistency

Re: Rahu name inconsistency
SFr=Shivan Freighter, sounds perfectly fine to me..
Terran freighters are GTFR cause it stands for Galactic Terran Freighter.

Are you kidding?I mean,the word is Freighter,the first letter remains capitol,so we have F.The second,because comes from the same word,becomes r.Drone becomes Dr.  Dreadnought becomes Dn. Corvette becomes Cv. Why Terran and Vasudan freighters are GTFR?

Re: Rahu name inconsistency
Yeah, I think that's another minor inconsistency. It used to be FR in FS1 and they seemingly changed it to Fr in FS2, but the names of the Terran freighters are all still FR.
