getBlueprint(blueprintSymbol): Blueprint | null

Defined in: src/ships/blueprints.ts:85

Look up a blueprint by its Frontier symbol, case-insensitively.

string

The blueprint id, e.g. "FSD_LongRange". Leading/trailing whitespace and case are ignored.

Blueprint | null

The blueprint (its name and grades), or null if this catalogue stores no blueprint under that id.

null is not always an unknown id. The game writes the grade-5 Decorative_* identities of festive pre-engineered variants in the same BlueprintName / EngineerModifications field. They name no craftable recipe — no materials or applying engineer — and are carried by the variants returned from getPreEngineeredVariants in ships/pre-engineered. Their fixed modifiers still change the fitted article's stats.

If blueprintSymbol is present and not a string. A nullish blueprintSymbol is a miss, answered the way an unrecognised one is.
