I use SCMDraft, so can I safely port maps between the two editors. That is, will nothing be lost if I open with SF, change, and go back to SCMDraft?

Guess I'm kinda hijacking here, oh well.

As far as I know if you do modifications on starforge, save and open with scmdraft everything should be alright.

Anyway you could just make a backup of your map and test it out (as for anything else)

Yeah, I would back up my map before even opening it in SF.

SF and SCMDraft 2 have no real problems unless you have resources belonging to a player besides player 12 in which case SF spazes out and spams warning cookies/popups, also... resources (ie. gas tanks) can only be toggle to non invincible in starforge when having all flags checked and then reimported into scmdraft if you wish to edit there... Back on topic, yes upgrades to transfer IF you mind control the unit thats what I seem to remember ^^.

Starforge automatically backs up your map on saving, you know...
just save constantly, so if it randomly crashes, you'll be almost back to where you were

SCMDraft2:Options:AutoSave:Every Miniute:Backup Every 10 Miniutes. xD Plus SCMDraft is updated... and StarForge... is not, back on topic (kinda) is there anyway to modify the unit attack name ie "Fusion Cutter" besides modding? If yes... say it if no... dont say it :D. Also can you use this do increase plauge damage/ yamato?

Unused Upgrade 60 upgrades Fusion Cutter too, doesn't it? Or is the bonus in the DAT 0..

If Unused Upgrade 60 doesn't do it, then it's because the bonus on the weapon is zero, so in that case you would not be able to change the damage without modding.

Whoever posted the screenshot was entirely wrong; you have to go to Players > Upgrades and change the default level of Unused Upgrade 60 to implement any of these changes. Since there is no "Upgrade 60" button anywhere, you can't change the upgrade level of a player by any method ingame.

Maybe this information will be useful.
Maplantis wiki: Upgrades

It has a list of all the things the "unused" upgrade can affect.



None.

Sep 20 2007, 4:49 pm frazz Post #31



It doesn't say which are affected and which aren't. Also, it says you can do it in SCMDraft 2 as well. Is this true?



None.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

Yes.
Upgrades -> Unused -> the unused Upgrade in the bottom of the list

BTW, which effect does 'burst lasers' have?

I don't know what you mean. Everything the upgrade applies to is listed.

None whatsoever. Burst lasers is an unused upgrade.

Some of the bonuses for upgrade 60 are 0, so they aren't really affected. That list you gave doesn't specify which have zero bonus.

Sep 22 2007, 12:57 am DT_Battlekruser Post #35



Out of curiosity, does anyone know why Psionic Storm has a damage upgrade other than zero in the DAT? Was Blizzard planning to implement an upgrade for it?



None.

Ok. The useless ones are marked now.
