Re: Space Empires V Editor 1.4 Released

Any chance you could include a section in the Editor for the SystemTypes.txt file?

Re: Space Empires V Editor 1.4 Released

Hi Devnull,

Hope things are well.

Just curious as to your progress in adding SystemTypes.txt to your editor.

I'm anxious to start generating maps with more interesting solar systems.

Re: Space Empires V Editor 1.0 released

Fyron,
Thanx for the response.
I'll take a look at the moon offset / same as idea.

The idea of creating planets in SE with 10+ moons (like those in our own solar system) has always intrigued...

This editor will be of great help!!
I've always hated mucking with the text files.

Re: Unused weapons causing me to lose battles

Sorry Arkcon.
I missed a couple of questions from your original post.

My 'Planetary Defense Missile Spread' component has a range of 20 and a reload rate of 1.

I've seen the problem (available...

Re: Unused weapons causing me to lose battles

Thanx for the comments Arkcon.

I agree with what you say and believe it makes the AI worth playing against.
I especially like 'team mode' where you don't have to spend time on treaties and...

Re: Unused weapons causing me to lose battles

Thank you all for the effort in trying to figure this out.

It sounds like the problem happens even with direct fire weapons.

This is disappointing as I have spent considerable energy...

Unused weapons causing me to lose battles

During combat, I’ve noticed that some of my (missile) weapons platforms do not fire.

The missiles that do fire get hit by point defense at the target while other missiles sit in their silos...

Re: Map Designing Thread.

I've always been disappointed with the way maps are created in SEIV.

The 256 system limit is way too small for single-player games with lots of AI (team mode).

I've tried (not too successfully)...

Larger Tactical Combat Area???

Is it possible to expand the tactical combat area?

Large fleets that attack my planets often get to start right next to the planet (greatly limiting my planetary defense abilities).

Re: Stronger Planets mod idea

EC, I feel the same way about planetary defense and have made a small modification to the Components.txt file that has been pretty effective.

I like one-player games on 255-system maps with 8-10...

Re: More moons for planetary defense?

Matryx,

Apologies for my delinquency.
Thanx for your interest in the idea.

Have you had a chance to create your SystemTypes.txt and StellarAbilityTypes.txt and SectType.txt files?

Intel & CI is such an interesting part of SE-IV that it seems a shame to not use it.

I've been trying to understand the finer points of CI and have the following questions:
