Several entries in the standard shipdata.plist are missing the citation marks.. that "declares" the object name, not the display name for example the mamba.. like here is a code snippet

Code: Select all

weapon_position_aft = "0.0 -5.0 -20.0";
		weapon_position_forward = "0.0 0.0417 16.6667";
		weapon_position_port = "-45.0 0.0 -13.5";
		weapon_position_starboard = "45.0 0.0 -13.5";
	};
	mamba =
	{
		aft_eject_position = "0.0 5.5 -17.0";
		ai_type = "pirateAI.plist";
		auto_ai = yes;
		cargo_type = "CARGO_NOT_CARGO";



The ships/objects in question are

Code: Select all

cobramk1
dock
mamba
viper
while all the other objects have citation marks..

its prolly nothing, and i´m sure the parser reads the names correct anyway...

Citation marks are only needed when the name contains a "space" symbol. (ascii = 32) In all other cases the citations can be left away.

What i thought, but, there are names in citation that are only one full name with no spaces

"tharglet"
"transporter"

and more...
