Thanks, I sure will.

For example, I may like to have, although now I think I got most of them already, teh meaning of every damage type for weapons are not described. Like "this skip shield and aromr and kill component with boarding defense, but not crew quarter" and the like. And what the damage value means for all type (like for plague to precise it is normal damage...).

It would make the great tutorial even greater (although this starts to be difficult, as it almost reaches the top already! )

Well, you get the descriptions for abilities in chapter 16... but I will work on it. Of course, I do not know off-hand how every single damage type works (other than what the name indicates ).

Well I see the chapter 16 like a mine full of gold, of course!
Just that when a chapter is so incredibly great (hop lots of compliments ) it's disappointing to see no description for damage type, as they are not trivial at all.

But considering the hell it must have been to create this page, I won't blame you for letting out such details.

But considering the hell it must have been to create this page, maybe a few more hours to complete the description of damage type, that I guess you must know very well in order to mod Adamant, would be a plus

Knowing which abilities are active, and in what way, in Units and especially Troops would be nice. And then how certain damage types effect Units, as well.

Fyron I have tried your event file there are way to many Planets destroyed, I hate it when I constently loose my planets and Home Plantets to your events and it forces the players to research medical to off set all the plague levels. By the way is not origional to Adamant

Yes, knowing that would be nice. Too bad I do not know much at all about troops. Very hard to test.

Glad someone is actually testing my file. What event frequency did you choose?

There are only 3 planet destroyed events. They should not be that common... unless SE4 does something weird like first pick a severity (with equal chance of severities), then an event of that level, which I hope is not at all what it does...

In reality, there are tons of diseases all the time. Being without medical technology is disastrous. How often are you seeing plagues? Also, keep in mind that all races can build System Hospitals that give plague curing abilities (up to level 4).

I started with the events file from the Eye Candy Mod (on Gold CD), but made a lot of changes.

Fyron of course I gave yours, Tescos and the Miz” Mods Event files a spin. And learned from them

GLV the way Fyron has his event file is near perfect, if you set the Chance at 80% or 100% or mess with the event files (original order) you WILL have a result; that will be different then, Fyron true intentions

I agree with Fyron. Strange new plagues and famine will be prevalent in deep space and consider the many microbes that will be baffling at first as they are here now to us; on earth.
