Just got the answer back.

No way to reset the password for the editor.

AYFKM????!!!!!

Lame.

<t> Just found it the other day trying to load in a modified game text file, didn't work until I re-saved to UTF-8. Severely doubt if anything is fixed with it, game seems to just have a mind of it's own on what it will accept and what it will choke puke and die on. Most frustrating game I have ever ...

Obviously not. However, once set, my question was, HOW DO YOU ... RESET... IT???

<t> Firstly, let me state how INANE it is to have a freaking password on a non-multiplayer game (or has that changed?) It's my game, I should be able to edit the game any time I want, and now, even though I religiously use '1' as my password, it's not taking it.<br/>
<br/>
So where is the setting ...

<t> I've got the game up and running with the Shakturi pretty much modded to be the Borg, replaced all image files for them, used Borg research tech, and changed all game text entries (note: YOU MUST save this file in UTF-8 format, or the game will refuse to read the key entries. Most editors by ...

Really discouraged by the poor error messages this game throws when modding, MUCH more should have been done to correct this in this final version.

At this point I barely play this game, it's just to frustrating to mod.

Has there been any work on a proper debugger for the game?

Also, where again is the current error file for DW:U?

Not being able to debug your own errors make modding this game extremely cringe-worthy.

<t> So it still looks like this then?<br/>
<br/>
Escort: USS Arcos 1400, USS Deneva, ect ect<br/>
Frigate: USS Archeron 1500, ect ect<br/>
Destroyer: USS Xenophon 200, ect ect<br/>
Cruiser: USS Constitution 1700, ect ect <br/>
CapitalShip: USS Excelsior 2000, ect ect<br/>
Carrier: USS Midway ...

They didn't change the format of the shipNames file from the last version to Universe, did they?.... because I was just in editing my previous systems names files, and see they have done away with commas now in that file?...

WHY OH WHY would they change stuff like that!!!!????

<r> Try a ship design with all long range weapons (or mostly so) and set it in design screen to standoff, standoff.<br/>
<br/>
These ships will constantly maneuver to try to get distance between themselves and the enemy target. This will usually be very beneficial in a fleet battle, as it draws ...

<t> Nope, tried that last night, still no joy.<br/>
<br/>
For this game, back to the ol' pen and paper 'print out 50 million ship names and manually assign in the ships list' play. Micro-management hell but ship naming is a BIG part of the enjoyment I get out of games like this.<br/>
<br ...

<t> This same problem existed with the previous version, in fact it was worse.<br/>
<br/>
You can either have your ships automated and patrol themselves, in which case they will defend their system well, against military as well as pirate and monster types.<br/>
<br/>
...Or you can full control ...

<t> I have placed my shipnames file in my customization folder, new ships are NOT using the file, still using vanilla names. This worked mid-game before in previous version. Also put shipnames file in main directory, still no joy.<br/>
<br/>
Is there a change in Universe that it will only use a ...

<r> And the rocketships are comin...<br/>

<t> I'm also not a big fan of the stock races, and replace them immediately with Star Trek classics and other amazing races designed by the excellent crew present and accounted for on this deck.<br/>
<br/>
I HIGHLY reccommend you download the Extended Races mod IMMEDIATELY, your game experience ...

My Syreen will be tasteful... to an extent. Wait to you see the Rec Centre, Beutelguese (or BeetleJuice) springs to mind... going to use the yellow for neon...

Wicked help, thanks lil polar bear fella!
