So Starsector's nexerlin mod allows you to edit a player faction to be whatever you want, which means I'm getting a crash course in modifying basic values in java code.
observations:
the game draws from several pools of themed ship names found in ship_names.json, with each faction having a priority value for each pool it draws from.
I have no idea if the game simultaneously checks the base /graphics/ folder for portraits and then every /graphics/ folder in the active mods but it seems to need no further address for each captain portrait than just /graphics/portraits/portrait_name
The game builds fleets around roles assigned to each vessel in the .faction file, with a priority value attached to determine rarity of the vessel.
jesus fuck my head is spinning I'm trying to cross reference code from a dozen different people to edit a file originally made by a totally different person.
