Default Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion

Couple of Questions here:

About FMQ Deluxe, i followed Fyron's Instructions and copied these files into a new FMQ+STM Folder. Everything makes sense except this

Quote:
4) Browse to the FQM Deluxe folder. Copy the following files:
DefaultStrategies.txt
Formations.txt
PlanetSize.txt
SectType.txt
Settings.txt
StellarAbility.txt
SystemTypes.txt
QuadrantTypes.txt

5) Browse to the "TDM + FQM Deluxe" folder. Go into the Data folder under this folder.

6) Paste the 3 files previously copied into the Data folder. Make sure to select "overwrite files".[/QB]
That part about the 3 files is unclear. Anyhow I copied and pasted all the files he talked about, makes sense? Everything appears to be fine so far but I just want to confirm i'm doing the right thing.

1 other thing, now all ships (at least early ships) show up as 'on yellow' regarding there supplies so thats one thing that went wrong


Other thing: Regarding EMP Files

Atrocities I was wondering what you thought of reworking the EMP files? To be honest I didnt think about it until this MP game came up and I started to customize my files. Prior to this the AI was always jumping waaaay out ahead of me in the early game and I was going around 15-20th quite fast. Now, with custom fiels, I can easily stay in the top 5-7. Why not customize the EMP files? I could come up with something that is appropriate for each race (trek wise) that is balanced. Now, if the AI disregards or does not handle these changes, the effor twould be wasted. I'm testing a Dominion and a Borg custom EMP 5k file for the AI now to see what happens.

1 thing for sure is the INTEL as only a few racees actually seem to build those buildings, could def be trimmed And if you plan on limiting BORG treaties thier political savvy may as well come down, etc

Anyhow, those are my things for today
