- Last line, change the name of Base1 = to Eurydome
- File:J4-Station.cfg
- change the filename to Eurydome-station.cfg
- Line 3, change the name to Eurydome-Station
- File:Jupiter_S2001J4.scn
- change the filename to Jupiter-Eurydome.scn
- Line 2, change J4 Station to Eurydome Station
- Find the GL-01 ship, change STATUS Landed S2001-J4 to Landed Eurydome
