Subset Games Forum

There is an image in, i belive, the effects folder of the img folder showing the engine glow. This glow appears on the kestrel and federation ships. The animation and where it appears is hard coded and the only way to have it appear on your ship in vanilla game is to have your ship completely replace all files of either any kestral or federation ship, specifically the ship's images and files, i.e. kestral.xml and kestral.txt. And the engine glow will only fit on the custom ship if the engines of said ship are in the exact same place and are the exact same shape of the kestral/federation crusier's engines.
Sorry if this is confusing.
