OKay - well - open up your shiparch.ini file. Then - you can do several things - but personally i would copy and paste the humpy entry to the bottom of the shiparch.ini file, and give it a new nickname. - like torpedo_boat
So nickname = torpedo boat.
Next - go to where all the turrets are stated for each class like this:
Example:
hp_type = hp_turret_special_7, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04
hp_type = hp_turret_special_6, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
hp_type = hp_turret_special_5, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
hp_type = hp_turret_special_4, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
hp_type = hp_turret_special_3, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
hp_type = hp_turret_special_2, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
hp_type = hp_turret_special_1, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
Now - delete all but two - so you are left with this:
hp_type = hp_turret_special_2, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
hp_type = hp_turret_special_1, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
Then just change the hp_type = hp_turret_special_2 and 1 to be these instead:
hp_type = hp_torpedo_special_1
hp_type = hp_torpedo_special_2
Whilst keeping the statements for the weapons afterwards, so you should end up like this:
hp_type = hp_torpedo_special_1, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
hp_type = hp_torpedo_special_2, HpTurret01, HpTurret02, HpTurret03, HpTurret04, HpTurret05, HpTurret06
Now then - save the file off, go to the goods.ini file and create a new package and hull by copying the old one to the bottom of the file, like this:
[Good
nickname = rfr_hull
category = shiphull
ship = rh_freighter
price = 380000
ids_name = 12011
item_icon = Equipment\models\commodities\nn_icons\rh_freighter.3db
[Good
nickname = rfr_package
category = ship
hull = rfr_hull
addon = ge_rfr_engine_01, internal, 1
addon = rh_freighter_power01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_scanner_01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_tractor_01, internal, 1
addon = shield01_mark05_fr, HpShield01, 1
addon = LargeWhiteSpecial, HpHeadlight, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight01, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight02, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight03, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight04, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight05, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight06, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight07, 1
addon = contrail01, HpContrail01, 1
addon = contrail01, HpContrail02, 1
addon = DockingLightRedSmall, HpDockLight01, 1
addon = DockingLightRedSmall, HpDockLight02, 1
Rename the parts for your purposes:torpedo_boat, so you get this;
[Good
nickname = torpedo_boat_hull
category = shiphull
ship = torpedo_boat
price = 10
ids_name = 12011
item_icon = Equipment\models\commodities\nn_icons\rh_freighter.3db
[Good
nickname = torpedo_boat_package
category = ship
hull = torpedo_boat_hull
addon = ge_rfr_engine_01, internal, 1
addon = rh_freighter_power01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_scanner_01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_tractor_01, internal, 1
addon = shield01_mark05_fr, HpShield01, 1
addon = LargeWhiteSpecial, HpHeadlight, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight01, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight02, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight03, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight04, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight05, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight06, 1
addon = SlowSmallYellow, HpRunningLight07, 1
addon = contrail01, HpContrail01, 1
addon = contrail01, HpContrail02, 1
addon = DockingLightRedSmall, HpDockLight01, 1
addon = DockingLightRedSmall, HpDockLight02, 1
Next - set your ship to sell - open the market_ships.ini file and find your base.
then add that package instead of one that is already sold there.
Example used here is the bretonian ship - but yours will be different
marketgood = be_package, 8, -1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1
You are looking for something like that because it sells there okay - so change it round a bit to give your package ie:
marketgood = torpedo_boat_package, 8, -1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1
and you are set. Make sure you get those numbers correct else the ship aint selling, and make sure yo udon't have three being identical and all..........
