Two different ships with same name, one not showing up.

[Erk]

hello, i recently downloaded the TOS mod package and carefully read the readme, and could not find a solution to my problem. I am having problems with the TOS USS Enterprise production model, its not showing up. I also have Zombie Zans Constitution Refit pack installed (readme said nothing about) and after installing the TOS pack, my TMP 1701 moved from the TMP menu to the TOS menu. The only other ships in the Feds TOS menu are the pilot and 2nd pilot versions of the 1701. Im just kinda curious as to where the normal 1701 went... cuz that one's awesome.  thank you for your time

Try renaming both the long and short name in scripts/custom/ships for both of these ships. Make sure the name is unique ex. 'Connie (ZZ)' I believe BC has this problem whenever two ships have the same name.

Or alternatively, change what menu they appear in.  You'll probably notice that the Essex has the same problem.

An amendment to what I said earlier: BC will not support parentheses () in the "abbrev" line. It will cause a very interesting error, that resulted in me being unable to use the "Add Ships" button in Saffi's menu and the akira icon showing up for all ships with parentheses in the abbrev line.

Try adding a \ before the '
