Any way to edit Solar Systems?

Post by Mecingo »

I would love to change Economies, Threat Levels, and even turn a particular Solar System into a war zone. Is there anyway of doing this, or is this beyond the modding for EM.

You can mod the star systems in Legends but not in Mercenary. The logic behind that change probably has a lot to do with how easily a player could use a modded star system to create a super-pilot in record time ... giving the modder an unfair advantage in MP.

You can change the economy by adding stations + support stations to the system, boosting the raw material availability and tech level, and with it the prices.

:o Oh, that. Yeah. But the "reputation" changes won't register in multiplayer. You can boost the economy, though.

I have seemed to boost the economy a little in Sapphire. But I really wanted to actually add more hostility in solar systems like Sol and Sirius. Maybe one day there will be a Evochron Hostility or something along the lines of utter chaos. :)

:cool: There's plenty of hostility in other star systems. Like Fauston. And a few uncharted systems are also very hostile.
