Re: Some questions from a newbie modder
systemtypes.txt has the entries you want. Just keep adding new entires (make sure to change the number at the top of the list!) until you get the # of objects you want.

Re: Some questions from a newbie modder
Here's an example of what Phoenix-D is talking about :
1017565873.txt
I didn't add more planets, but I did add to the number of moons (which are technically planets in SEIV). Also, the 3 solar systems have asteroid belts in them.

Re: Some questions from a newbie modder
Could you post the files here so that I could look at them?

Re: Some questions from a newbie modder
""Range Check Error"
If this happens before game start, you made something TOO big. SE4 doesn't like values over 64k for most files, for example.
