also, i find it's a good idea to keep a copy of IONCROSS freelancer character editor on hnd incase for some reason your ship does something weired. Or you have a mischevious sibling who might mess with you load out, causing irrepaqrible damage to your equipment. however replacing power plants and engines is difficult as whenever i have attempted this it always bugs out and leaves out a power plaont or engine, depending on which one i put in first.
