Call Signs

I have been working on a mod for over a year now that includes a lot of cool stuff. I wrote a script that will allow you to choose your starting faction when you initiate the mod. This changes your rep, starting location, money, and starting ship. The idea is to do away with the silly tags on character names for clans. The thing I am having trouble with is the call signs. I read somewhere on this site that a guy (by mistake) had the bases and other ships calling him out as a bounty hunter or something. I want to include this in my mod but can't find out where it defines your faction to the game. Even though I start out as say a Corsair, and they all like me, they still call me out as a freelancer over the radio. I'm pretty sure it is a one line entry somewhere but have had no luck in finding it. If anyone knows how to change it please help.

I don't think it ever refers to you as a bounty hunter. Always a freelancer.

Hi jsncalif11!

I'm not sure, but I think you were searching for this thread.

Faction Tag Thread

They did maybe not exactly find a solution for your problem, but in one of the last posts, korben posted a link to a picture, on which he as player is affiliated to the Order.

I hope it helps!

Thanks. Even if I can't get them to call me by faction on the radio, having the affiliation show up under the character would work just as well.
