Map editor

Dracus,

Are you running your game turns for your test play by web game with Version 1.35? Wondering if downloading the patch is going to cause a problem with it.

Maverick,

The planet naming is about timing. If I create a system called Sol and a planet called Earth, I will get a range error when I try to add the next planet. So just add all the planets as Sol 1 - 9, then change the names. Now no problems.

Geo,
I did update just to see what will happen.

everyone,
I did notice this about the game --- If you change the path name from mod back to none in mid game. The added races will use standard race ship sets. And when you switch back to mod then they al go back to their correct shipsets.
Not sure if they start using default AI's are not. still testing.

BOT
Yes,
you have to add all the planets first then rename them.

I just created a WP hidden behind a storm cloud.
This is going to make for some interesting maps.

I am really impressed by the map editor. The possibilities seem almost endless to me and it will let us create very different games. And I just love the SE III layout!
Excellent work MM and thank you very much!

It's still not working. After I name the first planet, I get a range check error when I try on the next. I first tried moding an existing system, then I created a whole new one, but I still got the error message. It's not a really big problem, but it indicates that there could be other problems with the editor.

Rules? What Rules?

Ok, let me run a few tests.
