Help required Re: Warp Points
 
Is the number of Warp Points per system (10) changeable in the data files?

And if so, exactly where is it?

Thanks.

You are wanting to change it to allow more then ten warp points to be opened in a system during the game? This is hardcoded, cannot be changed.

I think you can make a map in the editor that has more then ten points per system, but it is quite tedius to do.

More than 10? Dear god no!!

I wanted to set it at 4, to prevent the runaway endgame AI's from turning every system into a 10 warp point hub.

(Building the facility to prevent WP opening is usually too little too late.)

But if it's hard coded, theres nothing I can do. Thanks for the help.

One other solution: Just kill the AI before he can make jump points. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Is it possible to use the map editor to get more than 255 systems?
