Ships-what's the difference between .xml and .shipcfg files?

September 5, 2006 12:29:00 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I notice in the ship directory that there are both
.xml and .shipcfg files for ships. I have many more files
for .shipcfg files.

I may be interested in deleteing some. And I continue to wonder
why some of my saved ships show up in later games and some don't.
I know you have to have the techs in place before they show up.

The .xml file contains the ship's functional components only, while the .shipcfg file tells the game what the ship looks like. If you edit them manually or mix and match, you can create ships that (like the core ships) look completely different from what they should based on the functional components present.
