    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,
    Twenty percent skill,
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will,
    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

  • Some tips about editor ALPHA;


    Question: If we make new maps and want to use them as new sectors to explore what do we need to do to make it show on galaxy map and be able to travel to and from them?


    Answer: Go to Data\Map folder and open Nodes.txt

    In that file you can add new routes and new nods (maps).
    But I think that you will need to visit neighbor node to open new route.


    About planets in editor:
    Planet can be very huge, planet don't write any Z(depth) value.
    If you editing only planet, just place small planet in the center of the map and disable grid.


    About how it works:


    You can move object and camera at same time. Try selecting object and hold mouse then move camera with arrow keys. In that whay you can carry object on other place very fast.
