Default Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

As for making normal weapons powerless against population, this is very simple. (but it will mean that normal weaps would be powerful against cargo, and that you get true WMDs that can take out 50 large WPs in a single shot).

Simple go to Settings.txt, and change the line that says "Amount of damage required to kill one population" or something like that into a very high number - say, 1000 - then go to Components.txt and increase orbital bomb damages in a similar way. You could/should then also change some entries in TechAreas.txt to make orbital bombs more expensive to research and require more tech requirements. Also, you could add multiple types of bombs, ranging from small cluster bombs of 10kT which will enable you to create Escorts in swarms as orbital annoyments, right up to the 1k WMD that kan depopulate a Small Breathable world in a single shot but is prohibitively expensive.
