Actions

The FMs found in the supplied file will be merged into the FM file named in c:\Gunship!\data\custom.ini The .ini file contains a Helo field (e.g. Helo=hind) which gets copied into custom.ini and flt1.ini. This identifies the installed FMs to the programs and to the user. The new FM is active but you can have three custom FMs installed and swap between them using GSLaunch (see below).
