Right now, Starbase HP cannot be modded Starbase HP is linked to the HP of the hull it uses for the Starbase core design in GC2ships.xml iirc. I haven't tested if starbases get the bonus hp from the hp ability like ships do though.

but if there is alternative way to get the info to you, I'd love to help out. There is an email somewhere for you to send the debug.err to. Maybe someone can post what it is and how to use it (if it's not stickied or something). I don't crash hardly ever, except when I mod the wrong thing to the wrong

if you know how to do cheats, then do the same but instead of cheat use debug. This is supposed to make the debug.err generate more info. Also, I think the debug.err is filled out as it goes, and not just at a crash. Next time it happens, send/post the debug.err in the game's directory before loading galciv2.

I remember reading somewhere that XP prevents applications from BSODing, and if you get a BSOD it will most likely be due to hardware or drivers. I don't remember about it very well, so don't blame me if this is wrong

It's something with Stardock Central. You can turn it off in your preferences. Thanks to the irc channel for this info

The only problem that might occur is if that old binary format is not supported in the new version. Looks like the game automaticly converts the .shipclass file into .xml

This game is quickly costing me over 200.00 so I hope it gets fixed ASAP. Lets just say my copy of XP is questionable. So I had to pay to make it legit. Y

To remove them, just comment out their race entry in "Data\English\RaceConfig.xml". Are you sure this won't cause a CTD if the game picks them to be in?

Well, if Stardocks tells me how I can creat Hangars myself, I would not bother them asking to help the Modder-community with the "Hangars". Decompile the exe, add all the necessary code changes (knowledge of atleast c++ and whatever other languages & API's used), edit the GUI to show all the changes

Still, I'm not sure how the old ship designs are going to work with the new rotation stuff. There are new tags in the shipcfg file for yaw, pitch and roll. The default is 0 so old design should work. New user created ships are stored as a shipcfg (this is what it looks like) and now an xml file instea

2) Do you know offhand if, within events, each moral option can affect multiple attributes. Right now each event in events.xml allows a given moral option to affect one attribute plus population; I want to know if, say, a good choice can increase morale while also decreasing production. Events look li

You don't lose money fom wasted MP... any money you don't spend on a ship you built in that turn goes to your treasury Not sure if I understand you correctly, so sorry if this is what you do mean. A planet has 500 MP and builds a ship that has a cost of 100. You do pay 500 bc and not only 100bc. Rather than having rollover for p
