TL;DR
How TF do you change the missile engine color/fxs of the missiles in the game files?

in tahlan\data\weapons\proj\hekaton_torp.proj
change the following line:
Code
"engineColor":[255,160,50,255],
to
Code
"engineColor":[255,100,100,255],

of course, there is the problem that doing so may make it a bit confusing
so
if you encounter problems... well, you asked for it
literally :P

That’s what I’ve been doing. But nothing I do seems to make a difference.

Ok, I dont know what the hell I’ve just done but for whatever reason, It’s started working. Literally, all I was doing was changing those RGB values like I have a thousend times and it suddenly started working. Don’t know how I got it to work, but it's now red. I swear computers are freaky sometimes. The ghosts in the machine are showing lol.

Long version:
Awesome Mod! Tons of content, beautiful ship designs, and fun AF weapons!

I have a small question, however. I’m new to modding this game so I am not familiar with all its file systems etc yet. I have made a few small tweaks to this mod for personal use.  The only thing I wanted to do that I can’t figure out is I wanted to change the color of the hekaton missiles to make them a bit more like the Reaper. That red glow looks awesome imo and helps me not lose track of where my missiles go in combat. I tried fiddling with what I thought where the correct files, mainly tahlan\data\weapons\proj\tahlan_hekaton_torp.proj but nothing I do seems to change the effects for the projectile. Just want to change the thrusters from yellow to red (as seen in GIF).
Any help, please?
