Editor/modding questions

Post by Sabre21 »

1. Is there a way to create a star map and be able to use it from one game to the next?

2. Is there a way to move a starting location race without having to delete it first and then restarting it?

Hey Sabre,

1. Not currently. You'd have to create maps for each and every race and place all the stars in the same positions![X(]

2. I think you can create a colony for that race where you want the start position and then delete the homeworld. The new colony will become the homeworld and you'd have to edit it to appear so, eg, population, quality etc.

In other words, you can't really do much with it at this stage. I want to be able to create a custom map, save it, and use it for all my Trek mods.
