Manually Editing the Galaxy Using a Text Editor

Wait... ugh. It's 3:30am. I'll clarify what I did in the morning.

I'm pretty sure I changed t=6 and it changed to a split trading station. Buuut it is unhumanely early in the morning.

[Thalass]

Code: Select all

<o t="6" s="1" x="0" y="1000000" z="0" r="2"/>

This gets me a split shipyard with boron welcoming message.

[edit] Do'oh! I just realised that s=1 means split, s=2 means paranid. Though why it doesn't follow r=1 (argon) or r=2 (boron) is beyond me

T is type, furthermore t=6 means type=station.
S is subtype, furthermore s=1 mean subtype=split shipyard(are you sure?).
R is race, *that* one goes argon=1 boron=2 split=3.......

s="0"-->Argon shipyard
s="1"-->Split shipyard
s="2"-->Paranid shipyard
s="3"-->Boron shipyard
s="4"-->Teladi shipyard

r="1"-->Argon
r="2"-->Boron
r="3"-->Split
r="4"-->Paranid
r="5"-->Teladi

Hey it would be great to release SF modkit V5

Hey it would be great to release SF modkit V5

I know, but I've got too many projects going on right now. I need to finish this map first.

[AalaarDB]

Too many projects, tell me about it.

[Storm_Front]

Too many projects, tell me about it.

I don't have time, I'm too busy

[Thalass]

hehe I spend a fair chunk of the day doing this, I hope it hasn't been documented somewhere else

I wonder what, if it does at all, race slot the "player" takes up?

[edit] I just tried the race settings, and then kept going past Teladi. This is what I got.

Code: Select all

r="0" - ???
r="1" - argon
r="2" - boron
r="3" - split
r="4" - paranid
r="5" - teladi
r="6" - xenon
r="7" - khaak
r="8" - "I"?
r="9" - goner


The r="0" gets a rego of "s" and it won't let me dock, though it's not hostile. The r="8" gets an enemy with a rego begining with "I" and it /is/ an enemy and won't let you dock, though you can open the comms. 

r="9" got me a goner station and, much to my suprise, a million and one (okay so that might be an exaguration) goner ships spawned around me and began buzzing around. The docking welcome was "welcome aboard this goner temple" not much suprise there. I guess any goner station causes the spawning of a bunch of goner ships *shrugs*

heh. I think I'll stop there 'cos it's probably already been posted and I'm prolly pissing folk off. :lol:

Don't worry about writing all that down, SF nearly has a complete version.
