Modding the Demo

[Phoenix-D]

Well, you can definitely change the number of slots on a ship. I mad a 7000 KT cruiser with slot after slot of guns.

Then, to challenge the HMS Ridiclous, I went into Main_EnemyAppearance.txt to the Pirate system entry. Changed the chance of cruisers and destroyers appearing to 100, and cranked the number of repeats to 100 each (I did 500 at first. Starfury was Not Happy.)

Warp in and the butchery begins! Worked fine, though I lost about 15 FPS. As I killed, the FPS went up; apparently all those glittering pods I left behind don't use up as much resources.
