Topic: Trying to remember what the files in Assets>WeaponGroups are about

Doing a little remember and reconstruct work here.

For example the F-BB file has the following in it:

<0

<1
16

<2
0
1
2
3
4
>
<3
0

<5

<6

The F-CA file has this in it:

<0

<1
10
11
12

<2
0
1

<3
0

I just don't remember what it is I am looking at.  Any ideas folks?

Could you elaborate and give some details?  There is a VERY good reason for me asking.

From what I can see, I'd guess the "<1" starts a weapon group for the one key. The lines following must correspond to a wespon hard point on the SSD until it hits ">" which ends the group.

Is there any rhym or reason to the numbering?

It is user customizable... Defaults were made for basic hard point groups.. however, it is user defined... select first HP, then hold shift and select other HP's you want, then hold CNTRL and hit 1 - 4. the the list will be overwritten with the user selection.. same goes for 5-8 for enemy ship selection.. and so forth... there is no rhyme or reason...

not sure what editing this file will accomplish as it is constantly overwritten by user as they select enemy ships and HP's and assign keys to them ...

Doh! I remembered finally.  I knew it looked familiar.
