Ok, I'm a little too tired to continue tonight but I got about 1/3 of my latest material entered. Added 17.12 article by Stone Mill, numerous tweaks and some additions. Over the next few days, I will be adding a lot more material - stay tuned. This UBB editor is really terrible for handling large articles and I have tried several other editors, but somehow the UBB stuff gets messed up during cut/paste operations.

Atrocities: good idea, thanks! I'll do that after this round of updates. If the next patch comes out soon, I'll do another update after that one for any changes.

[edit: Mephisto, you can delete the old Version of the FAQ in the sticky thread if you wish.]

I think I used wordpad Last time, don't remember if it messed up the linebreaks though...
First I choose "edit post" (or quote) to be able to copy the UBB formats and then paste that into the text editor. Later on it's just to post and paste.

I'll make a test and try it again. It was months ago but I remember text editors messed up spacing, tabbing, paragraphing or some such.

I have the file. Anyone know when the uploads section will reopen?

There has been no word on when the new system that is in the works will be ready. I could host the file on SE.net. Email it to admin at spaceempires dot net.

One great FAQ site is GameFAQs.

Just make sure to stay far away from GameSpy...

Added more stuff to the FAQ this morning. About 1/2 finished at this point.
