SEV Beta History starting V1.0

[Captain Kwok]

Another gift:

Version 1.05:
1. Fixed - The resources amounts on the Select Package window would not change.
2. Fixed - On the Set Construction Queue window, the "In Existence" was always zero for facilities.
3. Changed - On the Set Construction Queue window, the "In Existence" field will now include
all versions of this object regardless of level.
4. Added - "Lock System View" button at the top of the Orders panel.
5. Note - To use Automatic Moveto for Construction Queues, you need to define a waypoint where you
want the ships to moveto. Then in the Set Construction Queue window, select Queue Settings
and scroll the list to the bottom where you can choose that waypoint as a Moveto location.
6. Fixed - Changed Planet Temperature formula so its not quite so cold.
7. Changed - You can no longer change your intelligence defense spending. It is automatically set to the
remainder after your attack spending is deducted from 100%.
8. Added - Scrollbar to the Weapon Report so that damage at range can be scrolled through a distance of 300.
9. Added - "Override InvConfiguration Slots" to the Mod_Definition.txt file. If this field is set TRUE, then
all Inventory Configurations will be read from the file "Override_InvConfiguration_Slots.txt" in the
mod directory (the flag [%EmpireName%] from VehicleSizes.txt will be set to "" and the name will be
trimmed).
10. Fixed - Revised Help Text from Chris Traber.
11. Fixed - Size for Small Supply Storage and Small Ordnance Storage reduced to 2.

Thanks for posting the history, Mephisto. It's great that Aaron has already fixed so many bugs.

[Major_SNAFU]

This is great. This is why I remain optimistic despite some worrying bugs I have been reading about.

Bravo!

[Mephisto]

No need, the script source files come with the compiler.

[Fyron]

It would still be useful to decompile AIs that are distributed only in compiled form though.

[Captain Kwok]

I don't think decompiling would work. The AI scripts take pieces of the various pooled AI scripts when they are compiled... so it's not just 1 file being compiled into the .csf script.

[Aiken]

IMO, it should be recommended for modders to include AI sources in a separate archive then.

Btw, will the map editor (or even scenario editor) be included into the full version? Sorry if it was asked earlier.

[Captain Kwok]

There is no map/scenario editor with the full version yet. However, you can at least choose starting locations in-game.
