How do u make a weapon only mountable on a certain ship?
I have the weapon 100% workin i just want to limit it to 1 ship, so others cant use it!
but how?

Is it for SP or MP? If SP, then you could make it for sale only on 1 base and level 10 limits the type of ship. Change the dropable/salvage
Sample of wep data/equipment/weapons equip/

auto_turret = false
turn_rate = 90
lootable = true ;change this to false so no one can recover it
LODranges = 0, 20, 40, 80, 100

And that will narrow down the field of who can get it. Hope this helps

If Chips is about, Is the Level of the wep set by the IDS cards?

Make it a level 10 turret class, and then mod one ship (your ship) to mount the turret as well. If your the server admin, you can edit your character to give you the ship - which doesn't sell anywhere - meaning NO-ONE can mod it in at all. After that, only your ship that no-one else can get can mount the gun. The reason? No ship in FL has class 10 turrets, and therefore the 1.1 patch will kick everyone else for mounting it if they tried to............even if they mod it in.

Thanks for your replys, Its for MP as part of a mod im doing, trying to make each ship have its own wepon class etc...
So i guess setting ships to only levels would b best way
eg
shippack1 = lvl1
shippack2 = lvl2
etc

if anyone can expand on this idea please do so, thanks
