A way to calculate Controlled planets = 0 or something? If so, how about running that calc at era change and using story branch logic to disable the era progression story events for any destroyed faction(s)?

I can think of one or two potential problems, but each of them are preferable to the game just dying, so I'll definitely give it a shot, thanks.

« on: March 22, 2014, 08:11:15 PM »On that last, how about this:If the planet has no income, structures or pop bonus what's the point of having it?
Each non-player major faction except for the IR gets a one-planet refuge which can't be reached. The planet has no income, no popcap bonus, no ground structures, and is so far away from the map that it can't be seen by the player. Meanwhile, the win condition is changed to 'take every planet except these 3'.
I really have no idea how modding EaW works, so is this even possible?

« on: March 22, 2014, 05:46:44 PM »Yeah, there's still a few things I wanna fix. Golan shield regen, check Terephon access, Warlord scout bike spawn, Visvia projectile visibility (plus letting it hit corvettes). I'd also like to look into why Thrawn sometimes doesn't despawn, but there doesn't seem to be any consistency in that. Also, if possible I want to figure out why the game refuses to accept the possibility of the NR player having any story scripting in ICW and see if we can't get a workaround for the game crashing ig a faction's destroyed and the era progresses, but I really don't have high expectations on either of those fronts. As far as general bug fixes, as far as what's been suggested it seems like we're essentially at the limit of what we can do unless EaW stops being a shitty game with weird restrictions.
Beyond that, I'd also like to see which models we feel like putting in from Ascendancy.
