Sector - Damage
Value1 = Amount of damage per turn to all objects in sector.
Value2 =



How much is reasonable, how much damage is 1?
I've seen a auto generated storm that has 200 as value 1. is that much or little?
Does the second value mean anyting?
In abilities.txt it says nothing but auto-generated maps has a value of 1.

It depends on the mod. How many hit points are you expecting ships to have? In stock, 200 damage can be a lot. But in mods with leaky armor (and lots of it), 200 might not be very much at all. Value 2 does nothing. Have you checked out the Abilities chapter of SEIV Modding 101 (http://se4modding.spaceempires.net/ModdingTutorial.html#Chapter16)? It includes extra info on the abilities where it is needed.

That means that the subdomain is not propagated to your local DNS server. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Just move the "se4modding" part after ".net", wiht appropriate /'s. Like this:
