the problem was that i had named a major and minor race as ferengi. as a result, neither existed. when loading a galaxy.

basically, no major race meant no planets for that race.

DCER has fixed this little bug/loophole so this error will not exist.

the issue was that once two races are named the same the editor would not allow you to change them because neither existed.

i hail dcer as a botf master.i do not know what id do without his editor

Well, you were what, moving ferengi from main to minor?

first, change the major race name everywhere.

THEN add them in as a minor, rather than doing minor first.

*shrug* I figured that out within seconds. :P
