If we take a random engine:

Just change the highlighted line to whatever you want

Thx darkstone, worked first time. I was looking in constants.ini

Another question though. and this is a BIG one. For some reason i cant edit misc_goods.ini.

Now i have been working on it for some time, getting ALL of the existing powerplants to be able to be bought, but for some reason, it has stopped working, and whenever i load the game (with my changes in the misc_goods.ini) the game crashes at start, before the menu.

BUT when i run the game, with my changes not there, the game works perfectly.

And the question is, WHAT is causing all my problems. Here is a sampl of what i am trying to do.

if ANYONE can see what i am doing wrong here PLZ PLZ do tell me. Because, when i take these out it works, and when theyre in there it dont work.

Infact i tried to make a minor change to the misc_goods.ini file, like make another nanobot, and it seems that any change i make, screws the whole thing.

PLZ HELP

For powerplants you need to change it to combinable = false. Combinable objects are only items you can have more than one of (i.e. ammo or nanobots). Powerplants, when added, are required pieces of equipment but you can only have one of them. Your entries should look like this;

WOW. Thanks m8.

I dont think i wouldve thought to change that. I guess that would be the same for tractorbeams and scanners too. Thanks a lot
