Re: Resources Hack

Why did MM put cheat codes in the game anyway? Does anyone use them in their games?

Re: Another stacked figher bug (I think)

I think that this has been noted before, the first fighter gets the benefit of all their shields but if it is destroyed the extra damage goes directly against the next fighter, ignoring shields, and...

Re: Ripper Beams

Re: Fighter questions

I have had great success using a LC as my PD ship so a BC would probably be very effective. Even using an LC, if my fleet has two I never worry about fighters or seekers, they are effectively removed...

Re: Ripper Beams

You should be able to split them up fairly easily. I think the reason they don't show up at higher levels is because they all have the same family and weapons family numbers. These numbers determine...

Re: Mega Evil Empire settings

You have to pass the value and your score must at least a certain percentage higher than the second place player. Both are adjustable and it can also be turned off.

Re: How do you...?

Will is correct, if you change the bitmap picture for the baseship in the vehicle file it will affect all the races. You could create a new hull type name for your base ship and just edit that one.

Re: How do you...?

Try Pacean1_portrait_baseship.bmp. Change the bitmap name for the baseship in the vehicle file to from starbase to baseship. Should work.

Re: Ship Designs

The ship I use the most is a LC. I've used this design in almost every game I've played.
Max engines
4 x large PPB's
2 x shields
1 x ECM, Combat Sensor, Multiplex tracking and Solar sail
I've...

Re: Need Help- load error

Yes, there is some sort of error that can occur if you save a game, play, save again then try to reload the original save game without quitting SE4. I forget all the particulars though.

Re: Tale of A Ship Idea That Failed

Early in the game you are much better off building the most powerful mine you can. The chances are higher that the mine will hit as most races will not have a large minesweeper ship(s) and you will...

Re: Need Help- load error

Did you save the game then try to reload it at a later time without quitting SE4? This is a problem that will corrupt your save games.

Search the mod archive for the Dubious Strategy guide. It's a great starting point for learning the basics.

Re: Tale of A Ship Idea That Failed

You would think if it was a known minefield that the ship would automatically un-cloak and sweep the mines.
I don't see why cloaked ships can't sweep for the AI. What is the differance between them...

Re: Can mines be detected?

Nothing can see a mine in the standard game.
You have to either create a new type of sensor to see them or reduce their cloaking capability.

Re: Fix to movement problem

I don't know how hard hexes are to program, almost every traditional computer wargame uses them. The hard part would be 3-d hexes!
