BONUS: Hold Control and ALT when you click in the design screen, and it will automatically add or remove 10 of whatever is under the mouse.
Add Shift to the mix for 50 at a time!

Leaky armor is now a snap to design with! Add 70 or a hundred components with the greatest of ease. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Man I didn't think any one still played this old game.

I'll be playing SE4 for years to come.

SE5 just doesn't excite me.

But at least it's 3D!!!!!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/yawn.gif

OK, I've actually used it now. SJ, this program is truly brilliant. If you didn't already have my eternal gratitude for your various outstanding contributions to the game and community over the years, you definitely have it now.

*dogscoff awards S_J a "community service medal", hoping no-one notices its made from a beer-bottle cap.

WindowedSE4 is now WIKIed. Includes a feature list, usage instructions and links.

Couldn't find a better place to link to it from than "Spreadsheets (SEIV)" so if anyone has any better ideas, you know what to do.

SJ, this is wonderful!!! Absolutely amazing but there is one issue. If you are running multiple monitors it only shows a small portion of SE4. That small portion can be moved but you can't see the system window or the command bar.

Re: *windowed* SE4, running on windows!
 
Hmm... SE4 normally does not blot out the second monitor with the black, right?
SE4 just centers on the first monitor, rather than being in the center of the desktop, and that is probably what is throwing it off.
