First, can you export the planet graphics, the data on it and such.

Would make a great generation tool for RPGs, like Traveler, Star Wars and such.

Might get some extra sales.

Can screen shot the stuff but a nice export would be nice.

Second, how easy is the game to mod.
From tweaks to full setting change over?

Grabbing the game soon, to keep me sane while trying to get house ready to sell.

So can not work on my 6mm scifi wargames.

Thanks for the information, and what looks like a great game.

I think the manual states that no modding is supported yet because it's a decision the creator has made. Dunno about the future, I'd support it!

All of Vic's other games have been modable. I imagine he will enable it with SE once he has recouped his expenses.

I just happened to have a link to the message in which Vic made his statement about moddability : http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/fb.asp?m=4812029.

As for your first question, I don't know but I don't believe one can as of now. That's not half bad a suggestion to make, in my opinion. Planet generation might very well get a polishing pass, so if it's not a pain to implement, Vic might consider it.

I hope Vic can make like a folder exported with Planets, histories, how they colonized and such.

Would be a good tool for anyone needing planets, with a great game to boot.
