Changing weapon ID's

I have a bunch of downloaded units I am placing in Spring, which work just fine. I read somewhere in the FAQ that Spring has unlimited weapon ID's, so I wanted to know how I can edit each of my downloaded units ID's. If Conflict Crusher can work, I would like to know how to use it with Spring. If not, I just want a quick and easy way to change the ID's to whatever I need (if not quick and easy, as close to it as possible
)
If this is not in the right spot, feel free to move it. I could not find a board that I thought fit this more.
Thanks in advance for your answers, and I am sorry if this has been brought up in the past, but I could not find anything on it.

Does Spring even bother looking at WeaponID's? Last I messed with them, I had 3 weapons with the same idea, and they all worked fine.

Well, that would certainly solve the issue on conflicting, haha.

That and you will sync out whenever you try to play someone over the internet.

What? I have tested some already and they work perfectly fine.

But if that person has the same exact files I do, wouldn't it work? I am pretty much only going to be playing with a friend.

okay some custom ota units will work, with some slight bugs. playing online others cannont play with you at all unless they have the same unit packs/ mod. and finally dont worry about weapon ids you dont have to modify them because spring doesnt use them/

Master if u really want to use them package them into mod format and set them as a mutator of AA or XTA (check the wiki on how to do so) u can't just drag and drop like u can with OTA. they may work for u when u test but u'll desync with everyone else unless they have the same units as u.

he's said at least twice already, he only plans on playing with a friend who will also have the units...
also, yeah, some won't work... like the karganeth... (that's the only one ive tested, actually)
