I a bit dont understand what mean fake true/false here.
Fake = false means that the projectile does damage. Fake = true means it's just a rock that disintegrates on hitting something.
When you fire a Flak, you notice that it makes a thudding sound when several of the rocks impact with the ship but no damage occurs? That's the fake projectiles.
Defense Drones can't tell the difference between the real shots and the fake ones so that's why the Flak I can sometimes still do 3 points of damage despite the drone logically being able to shoot down at least 1 rock.

There's a blueprints.xml and a dlcblueprints.xml
What you need to do is create a notepad file called blueprints.xml.append and put all the data you want to change in there (so Drone blueprints, weapons, flak, etc).
You then throw the .append into an archive (Like WinZip or WinRAR) and call it modname.ftl
Then you use a program called Slipstream which compiles the data together as a mod.
It's a lot easier and safer than damaging your game files.

Why are they all .rar files?
It should be just blueprints.xml.append and namemod.ftl

Most of us use mediafire or dropbox to store our uploads.
