Re: SE4 Editor
I guess it's to stop in-game cheating, but I'm sure an equally effective solution would have been possible while still enabling players to write their own map editors.
The best you can do for now is to tweak the game's map generation files, keep making maps until you get one that nearly fits your requirements and then save it out and tweak it.

Re: SE4 Editor
hehe, wish I had known about that 3 days ago.
I started looking at the map files. I wouldnt say I am making progress toward a map editor, but I am begginging to see patterns. Of course, that may be the effect of staring at rows of hex for an hour. Still, it worked my I was modding moo2. Moo2 was far kinder to work on map wise.

Re: SE4 Editor
somebody managed to make a map generater for stars, so it should be possible.

As soon as you let people access the code, someone (or many someones) will devise ways to cheat. |
