Making a Homeworld

Griffin Cloud · #1 March 11th, 2004, 02:32 AM

Hey Guys,

I am trying the technique mentioned in my Last post of putting ancient technology on your homeworld when making a new map, yet it doesn't seem to work. Can anyone detail EXACTLY how this should be done, or if it can't be done, another way around it?

Thanks,
Griffin Cloud

Ruins can not be on a colonized planet.

So can I just make a moon with the tech on it then? Can I make a colony ship to start out with or would I have to make it in-game?

You can't start out with a colony ship; you need to build it in-game.

My recommendation is to make youre home system with 15 planets and moons all with ruins - then a system linked only into youre system with anothe 15 planets with ruins. Id also chuck in a ringworld there also.

This has been my experience as well.
