Subset Games Forum

So, I've got player ship coding, enemy ship coding, and event coding down.

Now I'm stuck on this blasted sector_data.xml

The first sector in the game is, of course, a civilian sector. I'm trying to change its display name to "Core Worlds"; this isn't that important, of course, but if I can't change that then my other changes to the sector won't work either.

So I made an xml.append file, copied the civilian sector, and made the relevant changes.



But nothing happened! Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks.

No, you start in the sector with the name "STANDARD_SPACE"

Ahhh, the name of standard space is "federation space" which is not the name of the first sector (in-game).

I guess this means the name of the first sector is hardcorded? That's not a big deal, as long as I can edit the actual sector.

Thanks.
