modding

March 30, 2007 12:07:03 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I just wonder how much of the game will be moddable?

I tried to change max planets and stars to a higher value, but the game didnt like it

and also tried to change the InterPlanetGravityDistance to all kinds of values but I didnt see any difference of teh gravity well, or is that value hidden someplace else?

I would love modding of gravity wells so that one gravity well contains a whole solar system

Two things, the game will minidump with more than 5 star systems(haven't figured out why yet, but I'll be trying it again and sending the minidump file to them)

And the other thing is you can have more planet entities...I've had 10,000 but the resources it eats up are enormous, don't expect a smooth game. and as far as moddability, the final vanilla sins has been said to be very moddable.

Modding is what makes or breaks a game community these days, and I'm sure these guys know that.(otherwise there'd be no reason why I'd have figured out how to do some of this stuff in 45 seconds)

I think those constants are for the 'realistic' star system setup which is disabled. Not sure though.
