Regeneration ability 'bug' ??Submitted by Deathstalker on Thu, 2008-03-13 23:39. Space Empires V GeneralJust an observation of the regeneration ability (ie, organic armor). I've got it so that all armors regen a certain amount in my mod but also other components have the ability as well. Most notibly Engines. The problem is that during combat when engies repair themselves the speed of the ship that was damaged never increases to its normal 'undamaged' rate. ie, if it was 15 to begin with and damaged to 9 then even with all engines at full structure the speed of the ship is 9. So....is this a bug?? (I'd say so, don't know if this affects any other abilities {ie, damage negation, shields re » read more | 6 comments |
Modding QuestionSubmitted by RedArgo on Fri, 2008-03-14 07:17. Space Empires V GeneralHello, I am hoping to create a simple mod for myself removing fighters and carriers and maybe a few other techs I don't want in my game. My question is, since I only play the AI, will this mess up the AI ruining the game? I didn't want to get to indepth in my modding, just something quick to improve my enjoyment of the game. Thanks, |

Kicking Puppies or beating the AI revisited.....Submitted by pikcachu20 on Fri, 2008-03-14 08:53. Space Empires V GeneralHi all, I'm back, after an extended absence overseas, and started playing SEV again. I must say it's great to see the game evolve the way it did. But still the AI when it is so obviously beaten (100 warships bearing down on his last home world)refuses to surrender. Let's face it I'm all for going down with the ship but that's just silly. I've played a few mods (Balance and Dark mod, both very good) but the AI still refuses to surrender when beat. Now I'm not a mod maker, but I know many games (SOS, GalCiv) have excellent AI that do not require mods to make it work better. Still I know Aron does this primarily solo, and I give him a lot of credit for all his hard work. » read more | 5 comments |

How do I use special items while in a fleet?Submitted by Romulus68 on Fri, 2008-03-14 12:35. Space Empires V FAQsI'm trying to move a group of ships in a fleet, but I can't figure out how to activate their +1 movement point "One use" item + they are cloaked and I want to use my resupply pod. If I drop them from the fleet I can, but I want them to move at the slower ships speed, thus staying in the fleet. Can I use a one use item in a fleet? or am I missing where to do it? |
Patch filesSubmitted by down2xyro on Fri, 2008-03-14 13:18. Space Empires V GeneralFirst off i would like to say a gracious HULLO to all on the site. I have been reading some posts and everyone seems very helpful and friendly. I just started playing SEV and i have to say i love it and can't get enough of it, but my wife has other feelings about it. The question i have is where to install the patch files. I am not exactly a computer savy dude and although i have done it before on other games, i don't know where to put the patches. Can some one please walk me through this? It would be greatly appreciated. |
