I was looking through the galaxy generation files and I was wondering if it's possible to create three arm or five arm galaxies? It looks pretty straight for forward by just modifying the basic files, but I seem to recall reading that it wasn't possible to do that. Anyone know?
Are there any tools that exist that can create custom galaxies? I'd rather not have to hand craft it, so I'm kind of curious if there's any generated galaxy tools.
I've created a mod for name lists through the client. I've copied another name list and simply replaced names. I've added a localisation file. The name list isn't even appearing in the list, so I can't even check if it works.
What would cause the list to not even show up? Even though I've toggled the mod on in the client, I'm wondering if it's not finding the files. I'm playing through Steam, so I thought maybe I needed to put my files in a Steam folder. I'm not sure where though.
Any potential troubleshooting suggestions would be helpful.
Hi,
I was inspired by a post here were someone talked about dramatically increasing the influence costs of new starbases to make the galaxy more empty.
So, I started poking around and found: country_starbase_influence_cost_mult
The idea for the design is that you have a slider on the galaxy generation screen like habital worlds or primatives. Depending on how you set it say, +300%, then the global starbase cost is multiplied by 3.
I was looking in the various setup scenarios (i.e. huge, medium, etc). I figured I'd have to put the modifier in the file with a base multiplier of 1.0, but it can't be that easy. Seems like I'd make a new modifier like country_starbase_influence_mod
Hello,
I'm looking at making a few mods, things like events, name lists, and other data heavy elements.
Are there any tools people use to organize their data for each converstion in to text files for your mods? Perhaps some easy to make scripts you run. I've got a bit of scripting experience, but nothing serious. I usally modify someone elses scripts for work.
Good tips are welcome too.
I've been poking around a bit and I was wondering if anyone has made a custom mission or map yet. I'd really like to make some missions with a variety of objectives with the map tiles. Does anyone know if the map tiles can be effectively placed? I have to assume it's like any level editor, but you're dropping in the terrain and placing trigger volumes and such.
Any suggestions or tips regarding this?
I'm eyeing making a mod that varies the difficulty of missions a lot more. The goal is to make it so you could arrive in system and have a variety of drop weights/difficulties. That in turn would require maintaining a variety of makes ranging from light to assault.
I've found a number of map files, but nothing about how difficulty and such is adjusted per system. I have to assume it's just a difficulty range in some database, but I'm not finding it.
Anyone know where I'd modify those variables?
I'm messing around with the editor a little bit, but not quite sure where I'd find things. I'd be open for any tips.
I'm looking to make small mods that don't really drastically change a lot about the game. I'm pretty satisfied with much of the game, but I just want to add a bit more depth to existing elements. I assume this one be too difficult to pull off.
So, here are the mods I'm looking to make for myself. Most of them are pretty minor:
Quick Summary: My mother got a new job that required my parents to move. The employer would have provided housing for a long period of time while they got settled. Instead, my parents made a series of terrible decisions about their house and moving. They rushed the house sale and move costing them double what it normally would. It put them in the hole and I had to loan them 12,000 dollars from my life savings to bail them out. The other day, my dad posts this on Facebook.
