Precedence of escort definitions

If I have this in my shipdata.plist

Code: Select all

{
	"myship_default" = {
		... some settings ...
		escort_roles = (
			{role:"escort-light"; min:-2; max:2;}
		);
	};
	"myship_second" = {
		... some settings ...
		like_ship = "myship_default";
		escorts = 0;
	};
}
Would the second definition have escort_roles or would the "escorts" override it?

Effectively overide I think, as it would have no escorts.
However if escorts were added in-game (say via OXP) then they could either be defined, or I'd expect them to follow the template as a default if they were just randomly called.
