[Request] Mantis ship type B switch with Kestrel Cruiser

1. unpack the .dat files (use ftldat)
2. browse the unpacked files to data folder and open blueprints.xml (with notepad)
3. create a file called blueprints.xml.append in a separate location, open it with notepad
4. copy the <shipBlueprint> entry all the way to </shipBlueprint> for both of the ships you want to swap from the .xml into the .append
5. swap the PLAYER_SHIP_SHIPNAME part of the shipblueprint on both entries
6. make a zip file, inside it put a folder "data", put your .append inside that
7. rename the .zip extension to .ftl
8. move the .ftl file into GMM's mods folder and patch it in with GMM
i may have missed some minor steps but that's the general steps to do what you want
