Default Re: Babylon 5 Mod

Secondary images are in case the primary isn't there.
For the stock files, races pretty much ALWAYS have the basics. The only shipsets that don't are probably the Rock/Paper/Scissors sets I made.

It becomes useful when you look at the neostandard, or any mod with expanded hull sizes.
You can say:
Primary := troop infantry (a new, or neostandard image)
Secondary := troop small (a stock image, guaranteed to be there)

That way, you can mix shipsets that have and don't have the extra images in the same game.

Does anyone know where you mod the starting facilities?
Homeworlds get:
1 - Facility with Spaceport ability
1 - Facility with Resupply Depot ability
50% - Mineral Extractor
1 - Organics Extractor
1 - Radioactives extractor
Leftover Space - Research Centers

The game will use whatever facility gives the most points, and is available on turn #1.
For Spaceport/Resupply, it will either take the first or Last facility with that ability in the file, IIRC.
