SCSE lets you change the attributes (speed, crew, fuel etc.) of the
various ships in Star Control.
The SCSE100.ZIP file should contain these files:
DEFSHIPS.BAT Batch file to restore default settings
SHIPDATA.DAT New ships data file
SHIPDATA.DEF Default ships data file
SHIPEDIT.EXE Ship Editor program
STARLOAD.EXE Star Control loader program
README.DOC This file !
To use ShipEdit, simply copy all these files to your Star Control directory.
Now run SHIPEDIT.EXE and the program will display the attributes of the
Chenjesu. The values in brackets indicate default values. Use + and - to
select other ships, and Up and Down arrows to select a different attribute.
Just type in a new number to change a attribute.
The attributes are
Crew : How much crew the ship has. (may be < max for Syreen)
Max Crew : Maxmimum crew.
Fuel : How much fuel you have at the start of the fight.
Max Fuel : Maximum amount of fuel.
Power : Ship power / speed.
Acceleration : Higher values makes you change direction faster, also
causes weird effects when flying past planets.
Fuel per charge : Amount of fuel gained at each recharge.
Fuel per shot : Amount of fuel used each time you fire your weapon.
Fuel charge 1 : High values increase fuel recharge rate.
Fuel charge 2 ; High values decrease fuel recharge rate.
Turning delay : High values makes you turn slower.
Response delay : High vlaues makes ship take longer to respond.
Firing delay : Low values lets you fire faster.
Special delay : Low values lets you fire special weapon faster.
Fire sound : Sound to make when firing.
Price : Price of ship in full game.
To play with the modified ships, just run STARLOAD.EXE.
Have fun !
