To be more clear. As a test i added a ship to detriot munitions and it shows it sells it but there is no ship dealer.

So i attempted to create one with the ini in universe/systems

what i would like to do is create a base of in a corner some where that sells items unique to the system so when you are locked into liberty space you can outfit your self
with good stuff prior to leaving the system. Along with the Anubis and juni's defender

thank you cold fire

Try FL Mod Studio it works on the game directly not as a mod requiring activation, remember the FL file that's being edited needs to be changed from read only to read/write.

You can copy and paste a base from another system then edit it but that base has to appear in the Universe ini,

If you're just staring out I'd recommend you read Giskards section on system building see the link below

http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/913966-freelancer/faqs/25096

scroll down (about 40%) to find

"System Building from scratch by giskard"

This will cover the basics of what you're wanting to do.

I'd agree with Coldfire add a ship to a base that already sells them it's far easier than adding a shipdealer room to an existing base.

Are you trying to add an existing ship to a different base or a new ship to the game? it looks like both.

The Anubis is a buyable ship in the unmodded game but I don't think Juni's Defender is, remember bases can only sell up to 3 ships and those ships have to have their own "package" to be sell-able.

Adding a ship dealer room by hand to a base that has none at default is quite a bit of work - have a look at the files where the station interiors are saved. You would have to add the shipdealer hotspot (the button) to every other room, and add a file for the dealer itself.
If you speak of the person: This you have to do inside mbases.ini. You could simply copy a shipdealer (and his fixture line) from a base that has one to your new base and edit the nickname.

On mBase ini.

it's hard to tell where one starts and ends
any hint's.

first and last lines could be helpfull.

Ok, I will explain a litttle bit.
As ColdFire said, an entry for a base starts with a [base] block. There the nickname, faction it belongs to and how npcs call it are defined.

After that is a [MVendor] block, which defines how many jobs there are on the board (only for SP).

Then there are some [BaseFaction] blocks, one for every faction present on that base, it controls wether the given faction gives missions, which npc (defined below in a multitude of [GF_NPC] blocks) belong to them and their weight relative to the others theyhave on that base.

The [GF_NPC] contain the info for the individual npcs (body parts, voice, name, rumors they tell, if you can bribe them sometimes, wether they know some wrecks and bases they can sell the info of and so on. The Vendors are also defined, but usually don't have any voice and rumors and so on.

There is one [MRoom] block for every room you can enter on that base, traders and the baarkeeper have to be set as fixtures here to be always there, not only sometimes like the other npcs.

And then follows the next base starting with the [base] block and so on.
