Lately I have been diving headfirst into scripts. Everything that is running in the background is stored in the 'include' folder. You can actually add and remove files from the include folder, as long as you enter (and remove) the accompanying files from the system.lst file (which has a list of all files loaded into the game).

I learned a bit about random scripts, and now I know how to make and remove randoms. I have been thinking of tryng to port parts of RealMod into Starwolves 3, specifically, the Fleet spawns, but trying to decypher it and impliment it is too difficult for me to handle at the moment (especially since its all in Russian and German, and I do not understand either language). So far, I am thinking of trying to simply adding more random spawns, including capital ships, as well as adding more opposing faction spawns so that we can see more factional conflict.

But my first project involves trying to fix MSF/NESF spawns. In the Specials.scripts file, is the code for all the minion spawns of the game, MSF, NESF, Berserk, and Precursor (Summon NESF, Summon MSF, Summon Berserks, Summon Precursors). The Precursor and Berserk minion scripts work fine, however, the MSF and NESF share the same variables, which means that if you use MSF spawns, than try to use NESF spawns, the NESF will not spawn because the MSF script already took the variables.

I figured the simplest way was to simply give the NESF script variables on its own (changing init_team to init_team3 and local_num to local_num3). This is used in both the Berserk and Precursor scripts, but now the NESF spawn script is completely broken, and I am not quite sure what I did wrong.

BTW, where did you find some GKTurret, ive never seen any high caliber turrets, just wondered where you found some, and what they are called

You can only find them on Platforms in-game, specifically, the platforms located in Hephastus (though they might be found in other platforms found in the game...)

They were never meant to be mountable on mobile ships of any kind, and never meant to be purchased by the player thus you wont find them in shops, and even if you add them I imagine they wont have the proper pictures, descriptions, or anything like that. Hell, you cannot even add slots to the GUI to mount them on your mothership. This is why you have to mount them in shipdescription, because there is no other way to mount them.

Is there anyway to change the name of the ship, i treid altering the descriptions of the lion in the m_carcasses.loc file, but even after starting a brand new game, it didnt take affect

You probably edited the wrong lion. There are like 5-6 lion entries, and only 2 are actually used by the player.
