Yet when i activate my trainers i press the keys and then i click something *Crash* Why is your game some how "Trainer-Proof"??

So what exactly is the difference between a cheat and a trainer?

There's a difference?

There are plenty of cheats for the game, if you feel you must. Other than that, try and learn to play the game properly.

BladeVenom: a cheat is a code that is built into the game itself and allows you to... well.. cheat
a Trainer on the other hand is a program that changes the game when running, to allow you to cheat that way.
Developers usually put cheats in for testing purposes, but they usually don't make trainers!

Why would you even need to cheat? On Cakewalk the AI just sits there and does nothing. You can do whatever you want unimpeded and they won't do anything about it.

Do you run out of money on cake walk, on your very first game? Would you like it if you could continue, and learn instead of starting over from scratch?

I've never run out of money on cakewalk, so no unfortunately that thought had not occured to me. Far be it from me to expect players to know how to run an economy. Heck, even on my first game on GalCiv1 way back in the day, I've never had that problem on cakewalk.

A trainer is an external hack program for the game, so unlike the developer-created cheat codes which the game recognizes as cheats, trainer cheating can potentially go undetected by the game so metaverse cheating might be possible with one. (IIRC, If you use the built-in cheat codes in a game, it is no longer eligible for metaverse submission.)

I'm all for having cheat codes in games, for the single-player to use to experiement and have fun with. But when game developers don't provide built-in cheats, trainers are a great way for single players to still do that. That said, though, with the many built-in cheat codes in GC2, there's very little reason to need a trainer besides being able to use it where you *couldn't* use the cheat codes (ie: a metaverse game).

Those are the cheat codes. Print them out. I've used trainers for other games (GTA) and those cheat codes are easier to use than any of those trainers were.
