Post subject: initial prox

for some reason i've been searching through my .cfg, and i can't find anything that would seem to make ship (5) spawn prox. is it in the .cfg? if not, how can i make it so that ship (5) gets prox everytime it spawns, but none of the other ships can get it at all, is it a bot?

Not possible. You could make a bot prize...

I believe if you set the prize weight extremely high, it'll start w/ prox

it wasn't working, but then i set the prizeweight to a really high number and it worked, that shouldn't cause any problems should it?

unless everything else is prized at 0, there's a chance that you'll be spawned without prox... it depends on initialbounty.

You could have a bot prize ppl prox without prox.

The max value is actually 255. But since these are weights, having it be any number, and all the other numbers are 0, will result in you getting it.
