Re: learning with a mod
Being new to this game myself I know how you feel. Playing a normal game I often found that after a couple of years other races 'claimed' my sectors and decided they'd rather I wasn't in them hehe.
I've also read a lot of Messages that say to mine your warp points, but the only problem was, I couldn't ever survive long enough to develop them. So this is what i did to try and help me learn...
I created a new computer controlled race, reduced all their characteristics to minimum level, except for happiness i think, made them defensive and peaceful, and started a game with just me and them. So far i've managed to get a number of systems, progressed further in research that I ever have before, and I have yet to come into contact with the other race.
I've found this invaluable to me learning the game so far, allowing me to survive and try new things that i would never have been able to do otherwise.
