General Question How can you add ships to scenario editor

[Somedude]

Hi, so I was wondering why some ships and stations you download go into the Scenario editor and some not. And if there's a way to add them to the SE.

Vessel classes which have their configuration file in "Config/Vessels" directory, and which additionally don't have "EditorCreate = FALSE" in that configuration file are listed in the Scenario Editor.

Vessels which don't have configuration file in the "Config/Vessels" directory, or which contain "EditorCreate = FALSE" in the configuration file aren't listed in Scenario Editor.

Scenario Editor lists vessel classes, so in case of shared class among many different vessel types, there will be only one class listed in Scenario Editor, like for example in case of Spacecraft3. Spacecraft3 doesn't have its configuration file in the Vessels subdirectory by default, so it isn't listed. Instructions how to make Spacecraft3 class appear in the Scenario Editor are there.

For Spacecraft3 class, you need to name your vessels by their INI file name, and choose Spacecraft3 on the list in Scenario Editor (after you have edded the Spacecraft3 configuration file to "Config/Vessels" directory).

The ones that are not in the SE are spacecraft3 based. These aren't displayed in the SE. You can add them by editing the scenario file though, or by creating a .cfg for them (which I wish I could explain)

Alright so I think I know now how to get ships in the scenario editor, but I have no experience in making a config file. So could anyone explain me how to?
