Re: BotF Startup Codes (Command-line arguments)
since you based this on 16:9 map 1705714077 will not display as you expect on current installer vanilla with 5:4 maps
so your "cannon" would only be good for your install.You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Re: BotF Startup Codes (Command-line arguments)
The descriptions are a bit strange.
- Alliance = Game won in Ally team mode (i.e. Alliance 75% galactic population/vanilla bugged)
- Planet destroyed = Own empire annihilated (last system lost)
- Game won = solo Victory (60% galactic population/vanilla bugged)
- Game lost = other empire or alliance triggerd %pop victory condition (you hardly see this in vanilla due to bugs)
- Alliance = Game won in Ally team mode (i.e. Alliance 75% galactic population/vanilla bugged)
- Planet destroyed = Own empire annihilated (last system lost)
- Game won = solo Victory (60% galactic population/vanilla bugged)
- Game lost = other empire or alliance triggerd %pop victory condition (you hardly see this in vanilla due to bugs)
I don't know how many bugs is too many but that point is reached somewhere before however many in BotF is.

Re: BotF Startup Codes (Command-line arguments)
here i "wrote" a launcher with Bat-2-Exe that uses an old WinXP terminal so the "mode" command works without tangle with Win10 or 11 Terminal settings
enjoy
enjoy
