When spawning a new ship, the bits from this table are applied to the new ship's NEWB flags in byte #36 (i.e. a set bit in this table will set that bit in the NEWB flags). In other words, if a ship blueprint is set to one of the following, then all spawned ships of that type will be too: trader, bounty hunter, hostile, pirate, innocent, cop. The NEWB flags are as follows: * Bit 0: Trader flag (0 = not a trader, 1 = trader) * Bit 1: Bounty hunter flag (0 = not a bounty hunter, 1 = bounty hunter) * Bit 2: Hostile flag (0 = not hostile, 1 = hostile) * Bit 3: Pirate flag (0 = not a pirate, 1 = pirate) * Bit 4: Docking flag (0 = not docking, 1 = docking) * Bit 5: Innocent bystander (0 = normal, 1 = innocent bystander) * Bit 6: Cop flag (0 = not a cop, 1 = cop) * Bit 7: For spawned ships: ship been scooped or has docked See the deep dive on "Advanced tactics with the NEWB flags" for details of how this works.
