Ack! Modder help needed for TechAreas

Shadow99 · #1 December 10th, 2000, 06:01 AM

Jubala I've used UEdit before, but It did more than I needed... My preffered app is Cetus CNotepad, but even though it creates plain ascii text files I get errors when I edit SE4 in that app... Even the edit command in DOS tells me they are standard txt files, but apparently that isn't enough so I use MS's tools for the moment...

& Baron indeed I did... I sectioned Shields into many types of specialty Shields (ECM, System, Cloaking, good old Phased, etc) which each required 2 tech areas to develop...

I guess this is something it would be nice for MM to fix... & I'll resend a note about my prob to MM with what seems to be the prob tomorrow if I can...

thanks

Hmmm, you're right, it won't accept 2 tech requirements. This is interesting, as I'm sure it used to work fine in the Version that shipped (or was it the .99 demo?).

Just wanted to add it did indeed fix that problem, though now I have to figure out another good way of limiting you from having some of the 'better' shield types to early on... & of course I need to figure out a way for the computer to even realize it should build them as well... but that can wait a bit...
