Is there a different way to edit out the starshells, or should they dissapear when the red flares are edited out ?

The starshells can be removed from the ship's very easily. What you have to do is edit the ship's .eqp file and set the starshell to NULL. i.e. (this is from the NLL ship):

;SH5 FX Update
[Equipment 23]
NodeName=M90
LinkName=5InchStarShellGun;NULL
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

make it look like this to disable starshell:

;SH5 FX Update
[Equipment 23]
NodeName=M90
LinkName=NULL
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

You'll have to do this to every ship that has the starshell set (there is only like 6-8 of them done).
