Hm, I was under the impression that they were numbered from 1 to 8... But then again, I don't fiddle with enemy ships all that much.

This Is the same link, (I'm getting 32 bit, as I can't run 64 bit) so i'm not sure what's wrong.

Yeah, I figured that out, but the problem I'm running into is that when I try to load one of my ships that I created, the game loads a Rebel Rigger instead. Anything you could say that might help?

So since the game can't find the lists that events are referencing, it loads the default, crash-protection blueprint (located in blueprints.xml), which is, incidentally, the Rebel Rigger.


Using his advice here, I was able to make it so that the Rebel Rigger did not show up. Check out my thread for more information.

Ach, stuck again. I also figured out how to save and actually load an unfinished .ftl, but anyway. How do I place multiple artilleries?

Select Ship Loadout & Properties, go to Armaments tab, and scroll down -- you can add more artilleries there. You can then place the additional artileries like any other system.

Edit
@agigabyte
Well, I don't know. It seems to work fine for everyone else...
Regarding graphics, you need to select the hull/etc images via the Images Tool ('E' by default) -- if they're still not showing up, then probably the images you're selecting may be in incorrect format.

32-bit PNG, the same as FTL uses. Though technically the editor should accept any valid png image...

Yeah I'm using png.

EDIT: I did some random clicking and the image appeared, outside of the red and green lines, I moved it though.
