I know you can change the names in DefaultDesignTypes.txt for mods, and these new names will appear when you design ships. But... does this mess up ai constructions? For example, if I delete "attack ship" and put in "long range attacker" and "short range attacker", can I make an ai that will build these ships?

For example, in Abbidon_AI_DesignCreation.txt, it has this entry:

Name := Attack Ship
Design Type := Attack Ship
Vehicle Type := Ship
Default Strategy := Optimal Firing Range
Size Minimum Tonnage := 10
...(etc)

Does the "attack ship" for Name or Design Type refer to the "attack ship" that normally appears in DefaultDesignTypes.txt?

Thanks!
