Map Settings Screen

Post by sven »

The latest stable build includes our first draft of a map settings screen.

Among other things, this gives you the option of controlling the number and type of your opponents. However, we don't currently have enough star name colors defined to provide nice color schemes in all cases -- so the empire color schemes can get a little strange if you have >8 empires, or many different empires of the same faction.

Very nice!

Though having five enemies max on a small map for me personally isn't enough, I ran a short game and it was indeed short and ended at 234th turn with a half of science tree still unopened.

Five is just the default number; you can add more.

The map playfield size is tiny.I am not a fan of having a zillion planets but a larger playfield size is needed.It feels like you can explore the whole map huge very quickly.I think it should be at least twice the size that it is.I think a zooming option is required for that.

Also I hope to see the usual options like tech speed,marathon setting,etc.
