Editing ship attributes

OK so I've done this a few times but it doesn't seem to be working for me this time. I've made the Dragon really powerful... gave it 15000 hit points and a few other modifications. Anyway, everytime I go to the ship dealer in the game it shows it as still have 3600 hp... why is this change not taking effect. I made it have class 10 weopons and cost nothing... that all took, but the cargo hold and the hit points don't seem to stick... I'm confused.

Thanks.

Look in the tutorial board for ship infocards. They're no dynamic, and must be changed to reflect the changes to the ship.

I have a question that would fall under the Editing ship attributes topic:
I have added the Blood Dragon fighter to the Blood Dragon base for sale instead of the Hawk. But at my friend's request, I made it a VHF on par with the Eagle. When I first tested it, I found that when firing the weapons, I was running through power like water through a sieve. I went into the goods.ini file and gave it the power supply of the eagle and now it has a seemingly indefinite power supply. Is this because the ship's power usage is below what the Eagle's power usage is?

Hadrian... how do you change the power... what ini file?

Heheh, I'm kind of lazy, so I just found the power add on for the eagle and made it the power add on for my Blood Dragon.

Since I'm home now, I have been able to de-cheese it by giving it the power supply from a hammerhead. Simply went into the goods.ini file and pasted addon = bh_elite2_power01, internal, 1 over my old entry in my custom ship package.

Heheh, I was thinking of making a custom light entry into the light_equip.ini file for a blue docking light, then change my ship to have one red and one blue docking light instead of a couple of the running lights so I could re-enact scenes from Super Troopers. ^_^ "PULL - OVER!" "We're already pulled over! We can't pull over any more!" ^_^ Hee hee hee.
Kidding, I wouldn't do that, but it is funny to tell my friends that and watch their reactions. :p

-edit-

Of course I could have also gone into the appropriate .ini file and changed the power output and recharge on the existing engine, but I didn't want to change -every- ship, just the player ship.

I am awesomer than you.
