Couple of questions

Submitted by Astorax on Sat, 2008-01-05 05:56. Space Empires V General

Hey guys, I had a couple questions for the resident gurus, please.

1) Do Shield Regenerators regenerate phased shields if thats the type of shields your using? I only ask because there apparently is no "phased shield regenerator" or atleast I haven't seen one yet.

2) Do armor effects stack? Like for emissive armor, does the damage reduction stack so if you used say 5x emissive armors would the effect be 5x?

Entering cheat codes on a non-american keyboard

Submitted by zomis on Sat, 2008-01-05 10:16. Space Empires V FAQs

To enter cheat codes, it says "press the ~ key, enter the code, and press the ~ key again"

However, the ~ key is probably not located at the same place on your keyboard as mine.

This is my keyboard:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#Swedish.2FFinnish

And this might be your keyboard:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#US-International

For me to press ~, I must press Alt Gr and then a specific key. This however does not print the ~ character. To actually write the ~ character and the ~ character only on screen I must press Alt Gr, that key, then space.
I've tried many various ways of entering the cheat codes, I've tried to write a ~ character, but it ain't that easy. I've also tried what seems to be the American way of entering the character (pressing Shift and the top-left key).

Scanners?

Submitted by vbidez on Sat, 2008-01-05 17:46. Space Empires V FAQs

Can someone explain Scanners to me? They don't say anything about the strength of the scan, and the distance they can scan doesn't seem to be any better than Basic Sensors, so I'm not sure I understand their usefulness.
