Hey folks - looking to add a Torpedo weapon class but can't find anywhere the classes are listed/described. Your help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!!

Look at the "FrigateTechAntiModule" file in the forge tool's Refference Data Entrenchment GameInfo folder.You can copy the weapon info and put that in the file of the ship you want, Also check out "BuffAntiModuleTorpedoLauncher" and "BuffAntiModuleTorpedoTarget" files in the same folder.

Unless things have changed you can't create your own weapon classes

Thanks guys. ratchit, I was able to make the torpedo effects and behavior exactly as I wanted by copying/editing the files you indicated. But Terraziel is right - I can't change weapon class itself which makes editing the tech tree a bit tricky (can't have a line of torpedo upgrades; the missile upgrades improve the torpedoes too).

Thanks to you both!
