Contents

General Format

  • Ship.tbl is formed of several different sections.
  • All sections beginning with # need #End before the next section.
    • #Default Player Ship
      • Defines the default player ship in the game and also in the FRED. If in a mission appears a ship that has not been properly included to tables then game replaces the ship with the Default Player Ship.
    • #Engine Wash Info
      • Includes all the definitions of all engine washes used in the game.
FS2 Open 3.6.10:
  • #Ship Templates
    • Includes entries for ship templates
  • #Ship Classes
    • Includes entries for every ship and also defines their attributes that are used in the game
    • Is discussed in detail at Table Options section.
  • $Player Ship Precedence
    • Player Ship Precedence is used in ship selection when a ship specified by the mission designer is not available to the player. The next ship on the list is used in its place (assuming that ship is allowed for the player)

Default Player Ship

  • Defines the default ship in the game.
  • Syntax: Name, name of ship model as defined in Table Options.


Engine Wash

  • Defines the engines washes
  • First entry must be named 'default'


$Name:

  • Defines the name of the engine wash.
  • Syntax: String


+nocreate

FS2 Open 3.6.10:
  • In Modular Tables name can be followed by line +nocreate that prevent game from creating an incomplete entry by leaving the entry unread unless it already exists (either in ship.tbl or in earlier parsed *-shp.tbm files) by the time the *-shp.tbm is read.


$Angle:

  • Defines the angle from the engine where the engine wash exists
  • Syntax: Float, degrees


$Radius Mult:

  • Defines engine wash multiplier
  • Syntax: Float


$Length:

  • Defines the length of the engine wash
  • Syntax: Float, meters


$Intensity:

  • Defines the strength of the engine wash
  • Syntax: Float, blast effect


Example

  $Name:           Default
  $Angle:          10.0
  $Radius Mult:    1.2
  $Length:         400
  $Intensity:      1.0


Ship Template Options

FS2 Open 3.6.10:


$Template:

FS2 Open 3.6.10:
  • Defines the name of template
  • Syntax: String, name


+Use Template:

FS2 Open 3.6.10:
  • Another template can be used as template for the current template
  • Syntax: String, name


Ships Table Options

$Name:

  • Model name that is used also in game. It is also used as name for the whole ship entry.
    There are two special characters can be used in the name: # and @
    • #. It's used in the middle of the name. It makes the right part of the name not being shown in the ship class info of the target window, (or beside the target brackets in FS_Open builds). It allows making different versions of a base ship while showing the same class name inside the game.
      An example from FSPort FreeSpace 1: The SF Dragon#weakened ship, used in Enter the Dragon, appears to the player just as any other SF Dragon.
    • @. It's used before the proper ship name. It is fully ignored by the game. Moreover, @WhateverShip and WhateverShip are exactly the same name and therefore they both appear as WhateverShip inside the game. It just allows the user marking ships in the table because of any modding reason.
      In the retail FS2 ships there are several ships starting by @.
  • Syntax: String, name

+nocreate

FS2 Open 3.6.10:

$Density:

  • This defines how hard you hit something. If you set it very high, a collision will the lower density ship and not yours; the higher the numbers are, the harder they will hit and the farther they will be pushed. However, this doesn't apply to asteroids. When a high density fighter collides with an asteroid, the high-density fighter will receive damage, but it will also destroy the asteroid. Setting a density of 1000 on a fighter with 180 hitpoints will cause the fighter to immediately explode if it collides with, say, an asteroid. A low-density fighter will not have any effect on an asteroid, but if the fighter destroys the asteroid, the fighter will fly far away.
  • Syntax: Float, usually 1


$Damp:

  • Damp affects how quickly you will accel/decel to your target velocity. Higher damp means slow acceleration and deceleration. The lower this number, the faster the ship responds. For example, specifying a value of 0.0 means there is no damping, in other words, people would say, "this has no physics, like Wing Commander." The more damping, the harder to control, but the more smoothly it moves.
  • Syntax: Float

  • Syntax: Vector, three floats, x-axis, y-axis, z-axis, respectively, meters per second
    • Example: 0.0, 0.0, 80.0


$Rotation Time:

  • Defines rotation times around the x, y, and z-axis. Number is seconds it takes to complete rotate a ship (360 degrees) around the given axis. X-axis is "pitch," y-axis is "yaw," and z-axis is "roll."
  • Syntax: Vector, three floats, seconds per 360 degree turn around x-axis, y-axis, z-axis, respectively
    • Example: 3.0, 2.6, 5.0

  • Defines the maximum glide speed if glide has been enabled. If 0, this is set to the fastest speed the ship can go. If negative, there is no glide cap (allowing practically infinite maximum gliding speed). Defaults to 0.
  • Syntax: Float


+Glide Accel Mult:

FS2 Open, 3.6.12:
  • Defines the acceleration multiplier for the gliding mode. If > 0, sets a fixed acceleration rate in glide mode depending on value. If set to 0, impossible to accelerate while in glide mode.
