Probably Asked a Million Times - Cheat Codes Not Working
 

Using these cheat codes:
----------------------------------------------




<FONT COLOR=#555577>Cheat mode:

</FONT>Hold [Ctrl] and type one of the following codes
at the indicated screen to activate the corresponding cheat function.







<TABLE class="default" >
<TR><TD WIDTH=330><FONT COLOR=#CC0000>Effect</FONT></TD>
<TD WIDTH=201><FONT COLOR=#CC0000>Screen</FONT></TD><TD WIDTH=122><FONT COLOR=#CC0000>Code</FONT>
</TD></TR>
<TR><TD WIDTH=330>Add 100,000 to all resources</TD><TD WIDTH=201>Empire status
</TD><TD WIDTH=122>money</TD></TR>
<TR><TD WIDTH=330>Full ship movement</TD><TD WIDTH=201>Ship report
</TD><TD WIDTH=122>movement</TD></TR>
<TR><TD WIDTH=330>Build time for first time 5 years less</TD>
<TD WIDTH=201>Purchase window </TD><TD WIDTH=122>fast</TD>
</TR>
<TR><TD WIDTH=330>Re-supply ship</TD><TD WIDTH=201>Ship report
</TD><TD WIDTH=122>resupply</TD></TR>
<TR><TD WIDTH=330>All ship damage repaired</TD><TD WIDTH=201>Ship report
</TD><TD WIDTH=122>repair</TD></TR>
</TABLE>

------------------------

Only the "money" cheat code works. The others do not work. I have tried it on every window that deals with a ship. There is no official "ship report window". If anyone could show me a screenshot of what it looks like... or maybe its because those cheats are disabled now?

I am running SE4 Gold with the latest gold patch.

IIRC, ^f^a^s^t is used in the build queue window, by either selecting a planet/ship and clicking the shipyard icon, or clicking on an entry in the construction menu (F7).

The other three, you simply select the ship. The "ship report window" is the part in the upper-right corner of the game area, showing the details of whatever is selected.

Money and Fast works. The others are fake, or everybody who's ever used cheats have done something wrong.

Also, cheat codes only work if you enable them at game setup.

Are you sure those aren't for SE3?

Re: Probably Asked a Million Times - Cheat Codes Not Working
 

The same codes are in SE3, except for ^f^a^s^t, IIRC.

--edit: Just ran a test in Classic... I could have sworn I used those codes in SEIV at one point http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/blush.gif

Now, it is just overriden by some hotkeys. ^m^o^n^e^y and ^f^a^s^t do work, however. Maybe I'm just imagining using the others...
