...Except that everyone would replace your shipset with one resembling a glowing white box the minute they had to squint to find your ships. I think this already happens fairly frequently on PBW.

Yeah, it has been made. Do a search for it and you will find it. I'm too tired to do it myself. So I am leaving now...

Krsqk, I have come across one of those "hard to see shipsets."

How do I replace it with another shipset or "glowing white box"?

The only way I found this ship was to use the play movement log.

It's fairly simple to replace ships with a "glowing white box". Just open up the small ship pictures in MSPaint or your editor of choice, and make it all white. Glowing white box.

If you change the shipset from other players, that don't have any buggy effects with PBW? (because of the save you upload).
If not, then if a player didn't want to bother with DLing someone else's shipset, couldn't they just copy an AI set and change the name to match the "new" one?
