Rosbjerg -> Problem with editing Races, components and Prefered Government types. (3/11/2015 7:17:28 PM)
Well, I'm not allowed to post images apparently, so I'll try to explain instead. I've edited a races race files with the following: SpecialComponent ;9, 57 SpecialGovernment ;7, 6 Which should correspond to Shaktur Firestom and Novacore in my Components.txt and 2 Government types in my Governments.txt But in game it displays the races' special tech/component as the Maxoblaster (component 0) and Despotism (GovID 0). Anyone know what's up with that? What am I doing wrong?

I think the cause is quite simple; it's not possible to assign more than 1 special government/component to a race. The number 9 should indeed be the shaktur firestorm, I'd say try it with just number 9 and see if it displays that correctly ingame. If it still doesn't you may want to check the boskara race file and make sure they no longer use 9 as special component, cause I don't think it's possible to assign more than 1 race to a special component either. If you really want to add more than one unique component to a race you could add it as a normal component and disallow it for all other races.

Awesome thanks - it would be great if those kind of small tidbits would be added to the modding guide, for noobs like me (hint hint to the developers) :)
