Default Re: Editing In Progress PBEM/Tourney Games

Yes you can add units to an ongoing PBEM but O N L Y is it is unsecure. You CANNOT do this with a game that is passworded

-Play the game to the point you want to add units.
-Save it. Make a note of the save slot
-Open your \Saved Games folder and copy that save to you \Scenarios folder
-rename BOTH save files to the same naming conventions used in \Scenarios i.e. spscn474.cmt and spscn474.dat
-Open those new "scenarios" in the game scenario editor and make your additions
-When done save the "scenario" then go to the \Scenarios folder and name them back to the save game you were using

When you are done the game will have the additions BUT... the number of turns will be reset to 1 so if you had 10 turns left in the original game you would need to make that new "scenario" ten turns long
