Warp points, AI, shipsets, and multiplayer |
I just got Space Empires 5 a little while ago, and I wanted to ask a few questions.
I like to play a peculiar little mode in which there's no warp points in the map, forcing players to manipulate warp point defenses and warp point generators to secure key systems while extending their reach of power to other systems, while at the same time preventing their opponents from getting a foothold in the galaxy through such tactics as sending small military detachments to establish a foothold in an enemy system, then building a warp point defense.
Anyway, that led me to a couple questions.
First of all, if a system has no warp points and that building that prevents warp points from being constructed and there's no contact with that race because that system is the only system that player holds, is there any way to get to that player?
Second, does that Unnamed mod assume the existence of warp points, or could it cope in a galaxy where the computer needs to build its own warp points?
Next, does anyone know if there's a Starcraft shipset out, by any chance? 
And finally... how the heck do I get a multiplayer game going?
Well, anyway, thanks in advance!

Unnamed AIs cannot use Stellar Manipulation (make own warppoints), so each AI would simply sit in the one system they start in forever.

One more question.
What the heck are these points?
