Re: Tactics and Downloading my purchase
You can't mod the demo very much; aside from the single campaign that's it's only limitation. The only model for the quadrent map is the file itself. Its pretty simple actually..
The top paragraph creates the key at the bottom of the quadrant map screen. The rest of the file creates the actual map..
System ID := 1
-this is just the system's number. Each one must have a different number
System Name := Terran
-pretty obvious, the name of the system. This is the name that shows when the player accesses the quadrent map; you can have the name be different when he enters the system via a warp point for example
System Type := Blue
-the color of the system on the map. And that's it.
System Xloc := 10
System Yloc := 7
-x and y (horizontal and vertical) cordinates. they from 1 as the smallest to I think around 30 as the largest. 1,1 is top left, 30,30 is bottom right
Is Visible := TRUE
-whether this shows on the map at the start of the game
Number Of Links := 1
-number of lines shown on the quadrant map in game. DOES NOT affect the actual warp points or route the player can take
Link 1 System ID := 3
-the System ID number of the system you want to link to
Link 1 Type := Blue
-the color of the line made
Number Of Text Lines := 0
Number Of Icons := 0
-these two are both useless. They do nothing.
