Deleting ship templates?

TemptedNZ · 12-14-2011, 10:12 PM

I assume I'm being super thick but I can't figure out how to remove templates I no longer want.

How do you do it?

From the ship design screen, open the Load window and press the big X on the right side of the window for the design you want to delete. I believe you can also delete designs from the fleet screen by right-clicking a design and choosing delete, but I might be misremembering.

Didn't even see it, think my eyes just skipped over like it was background graphic.

Cheers.

I found that after starting a campaign and then quitting and deleting it, I could no longer delete any ship designs that I had built while playing the campaign, nor overwrite them with better designs. Any attempt to overwrite resulted in a message saying that the ship was being used in a campaign and would be renamed *shipname*mk.1 instead. It's not a huge issue, but my list of ship designs is now clogged with old types I will never use again- does anyone know a way around this?

My Documents -> My Games -> GratuitousSpaceBattles -> ships

Move any unwanted designs out of the 'ships' folder and they should dissapear. If the game is open, you may need to restart it.

Thanks, that should sort it out.

I came across an odd crash bug when deleting ship designs. I deleted all ship designs to 'start from scratch', but the game crashed and crashed again every time I tried to open the ship design mode. I had to reinstall the game. Don't know if that happens to everyone, I suggest not tying to find out
