Thanks.

Umm, there's really no graphics so it's probably only 1-1.5Mb zipped/rared.

You need processed cheese cannons.

Greetings!

Version 0.10 of the Space Food Empires mod has been posted. You can find it in the downloads section at the website:
http://sfe.captainkwok.net/home.html

Please note that you'll have to add AI players using the provided Empire files for now! I forgot to setup their files to use their racial traits! Duh!

Noticed a couple things:

First, when entering a system, I got an "Unable to load bitmap [root SEIV directory]/Space food empires/pictures/systems/stellarcore1.bmp"

Second, are light mounts only supposed to divide, size, damage, etc all in half, and divide the cost by 4?

Captain Kwok · #**157** March 22nd, 2005, 10:00 AM

Ignore the missing bitmap errors for now, I'm making them now and will patch them in shortly. I was just too lazy to revert them to stock images as I had intended to make them in time for the first release. I believe the following system types will produce the errors: One of the blackholes, pulsars, quasars, neutron stars, dwarfs, and probably one or two more. Also note the nebula/storm systems are all using the same 2 images will recieve a nice update by Friday.

The half-mount should cost 40% but be 50% in size etc. The slight break on cost is to balance out the fact that the half-mount is less effective against leaky shields/armor.

Renegade 13 · #**158** March 22nd, 2005, 12:41 PM

Ok

In that case, the mount is working perfectly.

Captain Kwok · #**159** March 23rd, 2005, 10:08 AM

I'm putting together version 0.11 for Friday that will add some of the missing system type and combat graphics, add more AI functionality, and bug fixes. Any suggestions, comments, other items?

Renegade 13 · #**160** March 23rd, 2005, 03:04 PM

Do you know when you're going to input each race's ships, units, etc? At the moment it's a little confusing having everyone use the neutral ship set

Of course, I could just rename another shipset and plug it into the mod with the correct AI files, but I'm just too lazy
