RacialTraits.txt

Submitted by Elucidus on Sun, 2007-05-06 10:32. Space Empires V General

Anyone know if there is a way to change the layout of the Racial Traits screen. I would at least like to be able to remove one line between some of the traits listed.

For example:

Mining Aptitude
- Mineral resource gathering increased by [%Amount1%]% from Racial trait.
Mining Ineptness
- Mineral resource gathering decreased by [%Amount1%]% from Racial trait.

Farming Aptitude
- Organics resource gathering increased by [%Amount1%]% from Racial trait.

Or maybe get rid of the description altogether for some of them. Also if there is a way to change the font on some things, like maybe a bold or something.

Anyway, I hope someone can help. I tried to search for something like this on the forums, but the search feature came up empty. Thanks in advance.

You could just put the benefit in the racial trait's title - ie "Mineral Aptitude - +10%" or something like that. If you drop the description field though, the player won't be able to see their racial trait bonuses on the abilities screen.

Yeah, I thought of that, and that is a problem. So I guess I will just have to rework it a little, a nice compromise.

I'm just adding a lot of options to racial picks. Trying some new things too, but so far most of those don't work anyway Smiling

Thanks, btw.

Okay I guess that will do for now. the Racial screen is a bit long now. I added the below for almost every available trait:

+20% 1000
+10% 500
+5% 250
-5% -250
-10% -500
-20% -1000

This allows a 5% increase all of the way up to 35%. Each 5% costs the same as it goes higher. Not sure of the balancing yet. Also the % are based on the original trait, like for some they are:

+10% 1000
+5% 500
+2.5% 250
and so on.
