New Political Parties
|
 |
|
 |
 |
I've made up a file with a set of alternate political parties. These certainly need tuning (I haven't yet played a game with any of them), but I thought I'd post it here for anyone who might be interested. More may be on the way as I come up with them, and I'd LOVE some custom party icons if anyone halfway decent at art is interested enough. The parties are the Environmentalists, the Hyper Engineers, the Survivalists, and the Matchmakers. Just copy the text below the line and stick it in a new file called ExtraParties.PARTY (anything .PARTY will do) in your GalCiv Data directory. Comments are welcome!

I didn't download these yet and test them fully, but at first glance there is one major problem with them.
Pol Party IDs must be below 50, otherwise they won't work properly in-game.
Good concepts though. This'll be easy to fix for you.

No worries. 
The data files are full of stuff like this, looks like it's going to work but it winds up not working. I also enjoy the ever-fun CTD/debug.err hunt to figure out which file did the crashing.
Have fun modding!
