Woohoo, I think I got it. I missed the line "planetItemTypeCount". It was 145, I added 3 so I needed to change it to 148. Mod now enabled/applied....will see if it works now

Wait a minute....line 7 88 is a playerTypeCount and would be line 778 if I hadn't added 3 bonuses...Is the game looking for certain thing in specific places. If so, where do I put my bonuses.... Edit: nope, I was wrong...screw me sideways! For something so simple this is about to make me spit fire and chew lead...sheesh Question...Should my modded Galaxydef file ONLY include my changes? Meaning it should only have the

Working on debugging it now...I think I had some extra spaces sneak in the text at then end of some of the lines...testing now. Checksum is 58181 (58177 after removing the extra spaces) Ugh...getting error: Text FileArchive missing Label.

Ok. Sorry for being such a noob, but I did some quick research and created the mod and put it where it is supposed to be. It shows up in-game in the mods section and I enabled it...no change to my map thoug. planet in question still gets a random bonus...What am I missing?

Damn, didn't work...game crashes....screw me.

Well...that stinks...I haven't looked into making a mod and definately don't want to make a mod just for a single map. Gonna try making a copy of that file and adding the bonus in manually. I'm assuming it will work as long as I don't try to play MP...We'll see lol Any ideas where to find a quick start guide to modding? I eventually to wanna mmake a rebalance mod of sorts (increase weapon range of defensive structures/starbases...th

I need some help with a map I am creating. Basically wanted to create a 1v2v2/1v4 map where player 1(or 0 to Galaxy Forge) gets a middle star system of 5 total stars. I have made the map so the "player in the middle" gets all the artifacts and that part works, but I cannot get a planet to have a specific planet bonus. Galaxy Forge only has the "Crystal Miners" bonus to add from there (is this gonna be fixed/why only this one?). This shouldn't be a problem because I

Your contention is nullified. You literally turned a thread titled "What happened to the hard agressive AI" into "AI is retarded/don't use the AI, play MP". You are standing by something alright, but it is your own portrait in a mirror. So happy are you with your lil "bicycle vs car"...philosophy...that you are blinded to its near irrelevance and the inappropriateness of it in this thread. I'm done. Trolls can't be reasoned with even when yo

Must...hold back...from...continuing this...endless discussion... Of how wrong you all are lol j/k..seriously, i kid. I just hope a more moderate approach is attempted first to see how it goes.

[quote who="zachduyahoo" reply="71" id="3178652"]Well from my reading using fleet supply is just one of the suggestions offered, keyword being "offered". Those putting foward the use of fleet supply are also giving reasons for it. This isnt some sort of lynch mob against the orky and the options are fleet supply...or else. Just seems that some people commenting here think fleet supply would be a good idea to tone back the orky a bit that is all. I think you just might be a little too passiona

I agree, the TEC do seem weak. Stacked bases does help the loyalist with a pretty solid defense but they need a weapon range buff (Advent too...Vasari have a mobile starbase so its range can remain the same). This would also have the added benefit of making defense against the now famous OP jumping Orky more manageable. Maybe add it as a defense/security resarch upgrade similiar to the one that gives the SB an extra target per bank (maybe as a second upgrade for that same re

[quote who="Brazilian_Joe" reply="67" id="3178512"]Quoting AceXMachine, reply 66 Incase it wasn't made clear, using fleet supply is not an option...end of debate.

[quote who="DirtySanchezz" reply="27" id="3178193"] That depends on the nature of AI and the nature of human opponents in much the same way that a bicycle and a car have a certain metaphysical nature. Basically, if you want opponents capable of strategic thought and of not doing silly things such as suiciding on starbases and titans and mismanaging capital ships, titans, and resources--you're just not going to find that in AI The AI will always be inferior in some sort of

You were warned, now here comes the hammer. You can NOT use fleet supply for starbases...under ANY circumstance. Let me explain why, for the slow. Aside from it being a stupid ass suggestion in the first place, what could the possible "fleet supply" be for a starbase. 50 like a cap ship or 150 like a titan (any suggestion of using less is pandering). The common complaint (read: whining) is that an SB has the strength of a titan, so why not 150. So that mean

[quote who="CarighanMaconar" reply="50" id="3177637"]I like the idea of having the Starbases only jump to friendly wells. Still being defensive units, just able to freely roam. Ofc, I'd further add that once you start taking bombardment damage in a well, you can no longer jump there - so no emergency-starbase.[/quote] That makes no sense. They can "freely roam", but only to friendly AND uncontested grav wells? Considering the limited number of average phase lanes per g

The VR "jumping Orky" should be nerfed with the additional phase slot upgrade as suggested. That alone will still make it useful without being quite so OP. Additional adjustments may be needed but should start with that. Anyone suggesting the Orky should use fleet supply will get burned... I think Coronata titan should be "faster" with a better turn rate than it currently has as a possible buff. Its got like 8 damn engines on the

LMFAO, priceless

[quote who="DirtySanchezz" reply="21" id="3177506"] Quoting Mazuo, reply 6 Would it really be asking so much for one single AI discussion thread to not be met with a Sanchez crap irrelevant reply about how one should just go play MP instead? It's a proper and perfectly appropriate response when someone complains about the quality of the AI. If you want to travel by car, then don't complain about your bicycle for its being a bicycle an

+1 to your last 2 points. I do actually prefer both. Starbases should move (altho much more slowly than the vasari) but i like the towing option to be able to rearrange structures as a TEC advantage. That way, your defenses on a contested planet you control can be shifted and are never the same. Still think SB movement should be manual manuever/ability with cooldown. That way you can move SB, which is all I really want, but not "chase" after an opponent in my gra

[quote who="Rinyuu" reply="7" id="3175572"]Do what I did, go to custom maps. make a 10 star with about 1500 planets, no freaken way you guys can compete. Helps a ton in MP, and you are practically free to roam. something would be wrong if you guys finished the map in under 2hrs [/quote] How in the hell do you play with 10 stars and 1500 planets? I made a map with 6 stars and less than 150 planets and the game is unplayable after about 3-4 hours (lag). I have a 2.8ghz
