Default Re: Modified Map?

This should have been posted in the Malfador Machinations/Space Empires IV forum, not in Gameboard/New Scenario/Mod. I think a moderator could move it.

You can't increase the physical size of the display area, but this entry in Settings.txt:

Maximum Number Of Systems := 100

can be increased to a maximum of 255. If you increase this, you'll need a larger set of system names; the standard SystemNames.txt only has 114 names.

Eliminating warp points would require so many changes to the hardcode to effectively be another game; it can't be modded.
