PBW can handle SE5, so there must be some command line parameters available.

It's the same as SE4, except there are no "-" options and no mod path is used. You can actually run it with the "-" options and a mod path but SE5 will ignore them. I'm not sure why he didn't put instructions for this in the manual. He says in there you yoo can run it at the command line but doesn't explain how. If someone wasn't familier with SE4 they'd be pretty lost.

se5.exe "Savegame\gamename.gam" "password"

cool, thanks geo, that's what I'm after.


umn, now does anyone know how to run applications in a python script? it looks harder than I thought, and I can't seem to find any decent examples

Can you post all of the SE IV command line options or instructions? How do you access the command line?

Start -> Run -> Command

Command Line = DOS window for all intents and purposes here.

The SEIV command line options are listed in the History.txt file in the same folder as the Se4.exe file.

Thanks Geo, and SJ.

I assume there is a function or a batch file that you can use to execute X amount of turns? If so where can it be downloaded from?

The trick is waiting long enough for SE4 to finish processing one turn before your script kicks it again.

I'm pretty sure somebody wrote one for the AI competition thing.
