| Post subject: | Okay a bit lost (yes me again) |
I had imported the "UltimateBorg2" data and then did a BigBang using it and now when trying to navigate, I'm being required to press the enter key when before it would 'automatically' do it when the number you entered couldn't possibly accept another digit (ie, in a 5,000 sector universe, 499 could take one more digit, but 501 can't). I can see the benefits of it not doing it automatically, but I'd like to know how I can toggle it to do it or not. I've dug through the options (at least I've tried) and can't seem to find it. Any ideas? |

I think that behavior can be toggled in the CN menu. |

I thought that was a change in v2 to make it consistent. |

I have two installs of the game. One on this computer and the other on a VM (Win Server 2008, hosted by Hyper-V). The WS machine is the one I plan to use for inviting people to connect to. Anyway, on that one, it stopped 'auto executing' when the value is high enough that typing another number would be useless. On this computer, it's still doing it. So I know that I'm not just imagining it. Something in the UltimateBorg2 file changed a setting somewhere and I'm wondering where. If it's a setting in the editor, then where do I toggle it? |

I thought the change was implemented in the current version. You might want to read some of the change logs and see when it changed. http://wiki.classictw.com/index.php?title=TWGS_v2_Revision_History |

I've only download the one version. Haven't downloaded nor installed any other version of TWGS. I downloaded TWGS (just a few days ago, from this site or from the EIS site) and used that same file to do the install on both machines. |

The CN menu is where a bunch of options reside. From the command prompt, press CN. Option E is sector autoreturn. |

When I used UltimateBorg2 and then did a BigBang, it's defaulting to off. So I was wondering how to toggle that for future BigBang's. |

That's all there is to it, when you big-bang again use this game data with a new random seed. Give it a try, deactivate, big-bang - random seed, then look to see that your modifications have been saved for this, your version of the "UltimateBorg2" TWA. You could always export your modified TWA and rebang it in a new slot as well. To export use the command center, conf tab, game settings. export. the game must first be deactivated before you can export it. |
