Starship Troopers [cheats updated]
Gain More Experience
To have your troopers gain more experience after each battle, go to
the "stta\units" directory and open the st_db_attr file in notepad.
Go to line
26. It should start out as:
26 1 0 0 15 0 0 1...
Change this line to
26 1 0 0 200 0 0 1...
You can try other values besides 200 to tweak the experience growth
of your
troopers.
Tip: Ammunition is a scarce commodity. However, using the right bullet
for the
job helps. Use the small arms for the in-your-face bug work. Save
the missiles,
grenades, and nukes for the bug holes and Tankers.
Tip: Heavy nerve gas is a gutsy way to ruin a bug hole's day. Make
sure that you
have a squad covering the poor soul hoping to drop the gas down the
hole.
Tip: Ambush Arachnids whenever possible. Use three squads to form
a U. Run a
couple of Mobile Infantry under the bug's nose and lead it back to
your trap.
Rinse and repeat for the large bug swarms.
Extra Equipment
Just go to your Starship Trooper directory and then the mission directory.
Go to
each mission dir and look for interface.txt files, open the file,
change the
different values in equipment from 3 to 12 or 18. *Note: make sure
once you
change the value in one file, the rest of the files must be changed
as well, if
not the next game cannot be played.
Increase Storage Depot Ammo
Open the st_db_attr file in notepad and you will see on line 29, 6
positions back, there is 10000. Add another zero to that figure.
Early Weapon Availability
Just go to Starship Troopers directory and then the mission directory.
Go to the
mission directory and look for the interface.txt files, open the file
and you
should see a whole bunch of items in the "Excluded" area, just delete
all these
lines. Do this for each interface.txt file and you'll get all the
weapons and all
the tech soldiers (MIST, psychic) before they would have been given
in the actual
game.

cheat:
After making it to the last level you canÆt get through cause the
Royal Warrior Bugs donÆt let you? HereÆs a cheat that will get the
job done.
Enter the Missions folder that you can find in the main directory.
Look for another folder named ô c3m7 ö. Open it and you will see a
score of text file in a sequential order from ô bh_1_1ö to ô bh_b6_3
ö. These are instructions for the bug holes and they decide which
bug will come out of a specific bug hole. All of these files contain
instructions for the Royal Warrior Bug apparent by the line ô bug_type
= royalwarrior 100 ö.
Edit the line to ô bug_type = warrior 100 ö and you wonÆt face these
scary bugs anymore. Once this is taken care of, you can handle anything
since most of your troops are in 1st Class Marauder suits armed with
double chaincannons. Make sure all the lines in the files (bh_1_1ö
to ô bh_b6_3 ) are edited. I recommend that you copy the folder ô
c3m7 ö somewhere else before tampering with it.
