Thanks Ed. The combat summaries show the Code for the vehicle size (LC, CR, BC, etc.) but not the Short Name. In unmodded, I think all the Name and Short Names are the same, but I'm trying to see if there's anywhere a difference shows up, and so far everything seems to use Name but never Short Name. (I had hoped it'd be used when reporting to enemy players, but not.)
I thought it used it somewhere because I remember seeing things like "Sm. Wp. Platform" appearing, when the full name is "Small Weapons Platform"... I just don't remember which dialogs use it...
