Re: How can I kick out spaceport functions completely ?
No way I know of changing the resource system.
You can change it to where space ports are obsolete...as in, everyone has the natural merchants trait...or whatever it is called.
But that won't allow for anything but an extra facility space per system.

Re: How can I kick out spaceport functions completely ?
Even when blockaded, planets still pull resources from the empire's storage. Blockading simply renders the local resource facilities useless.

Re: How can I kick out spaceport functions completely ?
Well, I will try to go deeper into the SE4 source code, first I will have to encrypt the files, of course,... a lot of work to do...
I think it is not possible to do such changes in the normal text files, as I did not find a trigger to regulate the economic connection between planets-systems-empire

Re: How can I kick out spaceport functions completely ?
Rather than trying to get around the encryption and hack the game code, why not just make your own game and then you can set it up any way you want?

Re: How can I kick out spaceport functions completely ?
Sure you can. You simply stop doing it.
But at any rate, you are not likely to get any assistance on this forum for hacking the game code. And your offer to make changes other people request is a bit concerning...

I don't wish to turn this into another thread about whether hacking or not is bad. I know many people, obviously you are one of them, feel it is ok to hack into programs. Whether or not doing so for your own use is considered piracy, I can assure you that doing so and distributing the files to others is seriously frowned upon. If you persist in discussing it here things could get ugly.

Re: How can I kick out spaceport functions completely ?
Enough said, MAYBE?!?
You seem to be a pretty sharp programer. Why not put all that energy into your own programs? Make some money!
