Birth of the Federation

It is much more fun to battle an overpowered AI and win by better tactics, really!
Just improve scan range or send out some scouts to keep an eye on it's fleet movement. And never jump into the dark where you might get trapped.

I can't see them referenced (editing them might become useful)? viewtopic.php?p=30656#p30656

Scrap some built ships to get money.
And like justanick already posted, not the ship number under construction is what matters, but the number of ships that complete next turn. If you run out of dilithium for them, the ship production gets stalled.

At Vanilla turn 500 they most likely already have Heavy Cruisers II, so it will be really tough to defeat them in combat, specially given the limited credits you have. First, it looks like you can establish a few more trade routes and at least colonize or member 3 more systems. In addition your scan...

could hero marker be added to ship stats? maybe under special ship check box? Problem is the average Joe user might be overwhelmed by special settings for countless special patch features he don't knows or even cares about? And since ID table has to be edited manually in that patch anyway, hex-edit...

sorry I have not posted, but all issues with B194 mod I fixed by resetting and adding missing monsters and increased ship list size (when B194 was made increasing ship list code was still unknown) per your suggestion Washing hands for the J-shiplist editor already made me confident you'd get it sol...

while doing some integrity checks I saw this one from Building mod 1.9.4 not sure what can or should be done, Joker removed those monsters from ship list. :shock: I improved the integrity checks some little. Still the following errors remain: b194-monster-checks.jpg With updated checks, for UDM and...

1. any time you edit buildings you need to edit/starting conditions/starting technology "autoset all" 2. run integrity check Same like the bldset*.bin files, racetech.tec is updated for changed building IDs by the Building GUI. Therefore it should not be necessary to perform any extra ste...

1. No error on crash log or event viewer This would be the very first crash neither logged by event viewer or a crash.log. I havn't ever encountered it before, so forgive when I question you on it. :mrgreen: The only reason I can think of is some clean error exit routine that by modding was shorten...

I have decided to start again. I will have the old gen mod and new gen mod side by side and reapply all ships first(shouldn't take too long with the "better editor" and other things such as patches and stuff I applied and see where it cracks. 1. You still didn't report the error you encou...

Was using UE 0.7.1b before Gosh, the last official version by DCER was UE 0.7.2dev5b, released 12 years back. :shock: https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/onscreen/botf/viewtopic.php?p=34128#p34128 It's however been a development version. By my logs Version 0.7.1b was the last official released relea...

Oh shoot I got confused on the BOTF installer and ue installer.
