First - you're a very lazy person, I notice many of your posts are about things already discussed clearly.
This has been asked and answered several times before, you really should spend a few minutes using the Search Forums thing at the top of every page.
But as I do advocate being helpful to lazy people like you as well as other ones who have at least tried to do their own groundwork, who may also read this post...
You're trying to put them into the wrong file I think. That's assuming you already tried, of which I'm none too sure...
Try misc_equip.ini
Don't forget that each section heading should have a square left bracket [ and a square right bracket too (I've replaced them all here by a #, because they don't show in this forum.
SO replace all the # below with the square right bracket, the twin of [ !
Like this:
[Scanner#
nickname = mars_flier_scanner
ids_name = 524570 ; use your own IDS numbers
ids_info = 264751 ; use your own
volume = 5
mass = 20
range = 4000
cargo_scan_range = 3000
lootable = false
[Tractor#
nickname = mars_flier_tractor
ids_name = 524571 ; use your own
ids_info = 264744 ; use your own
volume = 4
mass = 8
max_length = 2200
reach_speed = 2000
color = 8, 255, 8 ; Red, Green, Blue values - this is green, use whatever you want
operating_effect = tractor_beam
tractor_complete_snd = tractor_complete
lootable = false
[Power#
nickname = mars_flier_power
ids_name = 524572 ; use your own
ids_info = 264716 ; use your own
volume = 0
mass = 10
DA_archetype = equipment\models\hardware\li_fusion_reactor.3db
material_library = equipment\models\hardware.mat
capacity = 15000
charge_rate = 1600
thrust_capacity = 1000
thrust_charge_rate = 100
lootable = false
And then you can use the item in loadouts.ini and / or goods.ini to equip NPC ships and buyable ships.
If you also want the item to be buyable, you need to set the price for the item in misc_goods.ini
[Good#
nickname = mars_flier_power
equipment = mars_flier_power
category = equipment
price = 1500000
item_icon = EQUIPMENT\MODELS\COMMODITIES\NN_ICONS\equipicon_powerplant.3db
combinable = False
ids_name = 524572 ; this should be the same as the item above
ids_info = 264716 ; this too
shop_archetype = EQUIPMENT\MODELS\COMMODITIES\CRATES\crate_grey.3db
And then insert it in market_misc.ini
[BaseGood#
base = Br01_04_base ; where you want it to be sold - do your own homework on this one!
MarketGood = mars_flier_power, 40, 0.5, 10, 10, 0, 1
Note: MarketGood = <nickname>, <rank to buy>, <rep to buy>, 10, 10, 0, <price multiplier>
The price multiplier can be used to change the price of equipment at certain bases (price = <basic price from misc_goods.ini> x Multiplier).
Here the player must be at least rank 40, and must be at least 0.5 friendly with the base faction before he / she can buy this item. The 10, 10, 0 says that this equipment is sold here. If these three numbers are 0, 0, 1 then the item is NOT sold here but if you have one and want to sell it, it can be sold to the dealer at the basic price x multiplier.
If the item is not specified at a base, of course it cannot be bought there, but if you have one and want to sell it, it can still be sold to the local dealer at the basic price.
Roleplay: - the art of self-deceipt!
