Yeah was going to ask for something like that. Whats this test mode anyways? And the map creator, are you on about galaxyforge?

Well technicaly all the gravity wells are interlinking. So it means you can travel very very far out of the normal gravity well and colonise as normal plus build orbital stuff as normal (havent edited any of that). The plus side is that you can wage wars far away from planet's. Thats why i want to get rid of the phase lines so i can make a smallish map and build a fleet then just point and click a planet to just move there without hyperjumping. As you mentioned above thats what im tryin
Thanks. Tested it and it works well. There doesnt appear to have any screw ups (atm) but ive got another idea regarding the hyperjump ring.
You might be able to! What i have done is adjust the outer gravity line so that you can go anywhere within the map. Now what im trying to do is be able to see the distant planets when not adding phase line within galaxyforge. This will enable you to go to that planet without the use of hyperjump. Alternativly if this doesnt work without the phase lines i could disbale the hyper alltogether so its as if they were moving normaly to that planet.
If you wait a day ill upload mine. Ive replaced all music with homeworld 2 music also edited the Vasari voices to sound deaper.
Dam! Ok thanks for the heads up anyways. I can remove the phase lines but cant find any planets :NOTSURE: Do you know when the tools are expected?
Ok sorry may have not explained well enough. Ok say your making a basic map in galaxyforge. You make the planets very close together and dont use the connection phase lines (the lines that connect planets together for hyper jump), now without using these lines and preview your map you cant see any distant planets. I presume its because there not connected. So my question is, is there a way to enable you to see the distant planets when not being connected by the phase lines?
Hi im just wondering if its possible to disable the phase lines and still be able to see distant planets. Thanks in advance.
Hi thanks for the help guys. Got it working and its great. Ill release if there enough demand. What ive done is made it so you can basicaly travel anywhere in space even fly to other planets without warp ect. You could even wait around near an enemy planet and send a scout in and if you see his fleet travel elsewhere then you can just fly in and make a mess of his planet :) Theres a few tweaks i want to do atm.
Brill thanks. So my my other question is can this be bundled up with a map instead of a mod?
Hi, im just wondering if its possible to edit the size of the outer ring (where you cant build) of the gravity well in your own maps i.e opening the .galaxy file with notepad and adding a string? Or has this got to be done as a mod? Thanks in advance.
