Editting Empire Files
Quite simply ... how is it done? I notice the EMP files are incompatible with text editors (Wordpad, Notepad, and Word/Works, at least). Is there a proggie floating around out there that can be used to do it?

You can edit them from inside SE4 by loading it and then hitting the edit button

Re: Editting Empire Files
Let me be a bit more specific, then. What about editting the 'points' one has to spend on traits and such? The maximum is 5000. Is that hardcoded, or can it be changed?

Re: Editting Empire Files
It checks them as it loads them anyway. It still has to add up.

Re: Editting Empire Files
So no going over 5000 points?

Re: Editting Empire Files
Your starting points are hardcoded (0, 2k, 3k, 5k). But if you wanted to, you could reduce the costs of the characteristics (in settings.txt) and the cost of the Advanced Traits (in RacialTraits.txt).
As always, backup any files you alter. You won't be able to play in multiplayer games with altered files.
