Modding the population

December 28, 2009 2:49:55 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

OK, I figured out by going into gameplay.constants and changing the fleet supply, I can increase, or decrease it. Now, all I need is for someone to tell me where the Capital ships are and perhaps even how to change the slots of planets.

the cap ship numbers are altered in the 'RESEARCHSUBJECT_MAXCAPITALSHIPSraceUpgrade.entity' files, the logistics/tactical/starbase/mines slots are in the 'PlanetTYPE.entity' files, and you can also alter the fleet supply in the 'RESEARCHSUBJECT_MAXSHIPSLOTSraceUpgrade.entity' files, as the gameplay.constants are replaced EACH patch

and the entity files should be first copied to another location before you try to txt the files.

it is also a good idea to create a mod folder with your changed files in it

hope this helps

I'm looking through the files and see something like this:

BIN

the file needs to be converted to TXT, use the convertdata or Harpos GUI.
