In settings.txt, Pop Modifier 7 percentages are 135, and it looks like they should be 125.

Thanks for all your work!

er.. sorry to be such a newb, but how exactly does one upgrade from 1.1.0 to 1.1.2?

I tried unzipping the 1.1.2 update into the SEIV directory and got a separate folder. Do I cut and paste everything into the Star Trek Mod folder? File by file, or whole folder replacement? I'd take the time to figure it out myself, but it's 9:30 pm here and I've been at work since 8:30. My brain is not working so well anymore

First rename your StarTrek Mod folder to Star Trek Mod

Then unzip the update and install it into your SEIV folder. It should then ask to over write your files.

If you read down the page at the Star Trek Mod web site you will see instructions

The latest Version of the mod, 1.1.5 is coming along well. I have all races using their own technology in their ship ship designs and they all appear to be expanding well. They research their technologies early on, and are using components such as the Captains as expected.

I want to do some more fine tune tweaking on the designs files and some more testing to be sure all is working. I want to thank all of you for all of the bug reports and TNZ for his suggestions on the Design files. I will include weapons families reports so people can do their own modifying if the races do not build ships as expected.

Remember, AI is very limited and often uses components two or three times even though they are restricted from doing so. This is a pain in the arse, but do not expect the Ai's in this mod to be easily beaten. I have played four games now with the new Version and each time I have been beaten rather harshly.

I am hoping that this Version will be the Version that we can upload to PBW in a week or so.

Here are the updates as of v 1.1.5

1. Changed Name of Borg Transwarp Conduit Drive to Borg Transwarp Conduit Drive I
2. Added Borg Transwarp Conduit Drive II - III

4. Fixed Error in TechArea for 8472 technology
5. Modified Yet once agian the 8472 research.txt
