UNITS.CSV

The Units.csv file contains specific information on all Vessels and Installations and Upgrades in VegaStrike.

Units File

The units.csv is a comma delimited text file which can be edited with any spreadsheet program.

NOTE: Microsoft Works has problems with the long description columns. For a free alternative, use OpenOffice.

Columns in Units File
