We sell for less

sorry about my typing lately.

To JLS : take a look at First Centurian system.
There is NO picture for the asteroid field. Just blank space. This is because you can NOT specify asteroid field size in system.txt file. It is always must be "any". If you put "tiny" or any other size, SE get confused and does not assign any picture (may be even numbers - not sure) to asteroids. It is certainly a bug but we must live with it. All asteroiids must be "any".

Great ! I'm looking forward to it !

Theoretically, you can use any of my savegames for your race. Just copy race picture files to Pandoran folder in AICompain/pictures/races folder. It is impossible to change race description or name during the game though

Yes, I know

This is the Centurians Dead System

I am trying to work this thru and get a dead tiny massed star.... I have tried adding several abilities.
There is no harm in it, other, and then it being an empty system for now, with a interesting and obscure very tiny asteroid.

I have an alternate for Centurians Dead System, and it works, I know you will like this, Oleg

Link below if you want it now (size 23k).
Will be released with next upgrade, if it works out.

Please let me know, your thoughts?

Here is some Back Ground on AICs Centurion Systems. For anyone interested in writing a Story Line.

Hmmm, I think I'll give it a try. I'll post the first chapter in a few days.

I downloaded the new centurian file, I'm curious...I'll let you know my thoughts.

War started in honest. Xi'Chung apparently secured the system next to Cenurian I and declared the war.
Two fleets, one with 25 ships another with 11 attacks Centurian I. The planet is protected by 7 destroyers, 60 fighters
and 4 medium weapon platforms. Here is the charge of the first, larger Xi'Chung fleet.

Very soon they all be dead. Here is why

We lost all our ships and half of the fighters but killed all invaders. That should teach them a lesson !
Hmm. not really. two months later another fleet arrives. Thet just keep coming and coming !

Oleg,
This is fascinating. I would much rather watch your game.

Watch out for the XiChung, they are dreadful and the meanest race in AIC.

If they ever start next to me, I always start a new game. You are playing this game with a AI low bonus, do not know about you, but I have a hard time with the AI in that setting.

How do you save the jpg pictures and have them available for us to see?

Neat game, and you are telling a great story

Wow!

It's lots of hard (well, not hard, but tedious) work to keep us filled in.
