Becoming MEE in early game.

Oleg, sorry my bad, I forget about those decimals.
Typically around 2406.0 to 2407. and then I start to quantitatively bloat.

Pvk, how does one go about sending a saved game?

Thanks

Then there must be something wrong with AI in your set-up. You mentioned that you play modded SE IV. That maight be a problem. Try TDM-Modpack with high AI bonus. If you still trigger MEE by turn 70, please post your savegame.

How does one post a saved game?

I have been playing PvK's Proportions since March, now I'm giving Derek's Mod a try because of the AI in there, with Proportions flavor.

Also, a couple of you have mentioned that playing with 10 - 12 AI, no nuetrals gives good results. Is this because there is more room and time for them to expand and establish themselves.

I have noticed that in the line grafs of ships and bases, I do have quite a hefty spike.

Thanks

The AI in my mod is currently a mish mash of a variety of things.

The ship design files are from Devnull, which was originally TDM and modified to Devnull standards. They are further modified by me to cover the quasi-Newtonian propulsion system, and to try and get them to use the variety of things available in Derek's Mod Gold.

On the other hand, the facility and planet AI are more or less straight from Proportions.

If you are looking for a challenge, add in the Space Monsters. You do this by adding in the monsters as one of the empires, then making sure you set it to 'computer controlled' Space Monster will definitely give you a run for your money. It's very disconcerting to see, about 20 turns into the game, a message that a new warppoint has opened into your system, and knowing that only the monsters have that capability.

Have fun!

tnarg, to email me a saved game, find the saved game file "whatever_you_saved_it_as.gam" in your SE4/savegame directory, and attach it to an email addressed to:

P v K @ w a r g a m e r . c o m

(but no spaces between the letters - those are to reduce the amount of spam I get)

What Version of Proportions are you using?
