Console on v1.1? How?

form dan..

If you use steam, goto library and right click on the Galciv3 game, and you will see properties.  After that, in the default General Tab, click on the launch options button.  Here, type in "cheat" and this will be added to the process launch of galciv3.

For those that dont have steam, you will need to create a shortcut item of the Galciv3.exe, and then right click on it and go to properties.  Notice the TARGET LINK, which has the direct path and name of the Galciv3.exe application.  Here, append " cheat" to the line, thus adding this option during the process launch of galciv3.exe.

This is new in v1.1.  They dont want the console window to be a "default" option for players.  You should only be able to go in there if you know (or if you think you know ), what you are doing.  As this is a beneficial test function, but nevertheless 'primarily' meant for star dock, they dont have to formally support it as it is now NOT part of the 'standard installation package'.  Hence, if you find a strange bug, its certainly wise to re-test it without the debug console enabled, as its possible that it could be contributing to the error.

Thank you. I knew there had to be an easy way to do this.
