The following is an example of a simple [[shipdata.plist]] that aims to introduce an entity into Oolite that shares many/most characteristics with another entity already present in an Oolite shipdata.plist.

Code:

<dict>
<key>my_custom_adder</key>
<dict>
<key>like_ship</key>
<string>adder</string>
<key>name</key>
<string>Freak Adder</string>
<key>model</key>
<string>custom_adder.dat</string>
<key>roles</key>
<string>trader my_freaky_adder</string>
</dict>
</dict>
</plist>

'''Note:'''

What is crucial here, is that the ''like_ship'' entry corresponds with a known ship <u>name</u>, and that the ''model'' referred to is correctly spelled. With the other entries (or any other desired changed from the original reference) one is free to choose personal preference. The ''roles'' entry above includes the unique entry 'my_freaky_adder' because this could later be used in a [[script.plist]] to summon this specific model.

== Recap ==

As with all such files, the above shipdata will be placed in a folder named ''Config'', and the models it refers to placed within a folder named ''Models'' and its textures placed in ''Textures''. These folders would again be placed in a top level folder to be named, for instance, ''MyLike_ship''.oxp, ready to be placed in your AddOns.
