How to design in such a way that the mission will choose a single ship from a list? My guess is that if I assign a percentage chance from a lot of units the game will spawn many units each one with its own percentage. So I will end up with many ships at once. I want just one from a list.
i believe you will have to build a GROUP (RGG) and use the parameter that will limit the Maximum number of ships spawned.

so you create a Group, add various ships with spawn percentages, then set the Max parameter to one.

i am not sure what would happen if the percentages worked against you and zero ships were spawned.

anyway, that's how i would do what you are trying to do.

good luck.
