Experience

I have modded Terran ships to be the enemy of the race I play as. The Terran ships attack me, but I don't get experience for killing them. Is there any way to change this?
Are the names of the ranks moddable? I would like to change these to sound more underworld, with things like Thug, Enforcer, Boss, etc instead of Captain & crew

Did you change your "starting player race" line in the Campaign data file?

Doesn't look like it. You can change the experience needed per level, but not the ranks.

I'd submit that to MM as a featue request; he did say in the chat that he plans to impliment new stuff (like cloaking!) in a patch. That might make the cut.

My starting race is set to Syndicate. The race is set to not be allies with the Terrans, Terrans likewise to Syndicate. Are there any other files to check? I couldn't find anything to change in main_enemies, or in PurchaseShipsEnemy either.

Uh oh. Sounds like a genuine bug. If the same thing happens in my Star Trek Mod, we'll know for sure...

While we're at it, any way we can change "Shuttle Over" to "Beam Over"?
