Default Re: Fatherland game file

Oh, it's fairly simple to do if you're the host with the fatherland file; most items are in the order displayed (as with most programs), so, for example, if you wanted to edit the number of gems he has, you basically just search for the numbers of gems he has for several types in order (can't remember if it used two bytes or four per type....) - but there's catches; some things (like gems) are controlled by the turn file - so if you are editing the number of gems he has, you have to force him to miss a turn in order for him to get the gems.... which could be very very bad. Others are compared between the turn and the fatherland file, with the fatherland file as the master - if the turn file doesn't match, it's discarded, and the turn is lost.
