"I did click the boxes but the %'s are grayed out and can't be changed. "

First you have to click the box. After that the % is still grayed out, but when you move your cursor on it it becomes blue. At least that is what happens in my game.

"Then you are going to have to create your race FIRST then create your AI race."

That doesn't seem to help. I think not being able to click on the computer control box is a bug. A work around is to add an existing race and edit it. That way you can click on the box. Another way is to make the new compute race, save it, remove it, then add it as an existing race and click on the box.

You need to click on the toggle Controlled by Player, not the label Computer Controlled.

Click on the greyed Victory Conditions that you want to use (they should highlight), then move your mouse across the screen until the sliders for setting that value appear. Click the arrows to change the values.

That toggle doesn't work if you have added a new race. It is a new bug that wasn't in classic SEIV.

Actually, that toggle DOES work.. just not when you're adding the race. You have to go back with the edit button and turn it on for some reason.

You probably need to change the "Num Tech requirements :=1", and set it to two (or however many you have now)

Never mind I fixed the scout ship problem. I was looking over the TechArea file and I changed a few things around. I don't remember which ones I changed but that did it!
