For some unknow reason the program puts in a ring of random asteroids around the ones i've planned. Does anyone know why this might be?

Post by: Jamis on March 27, 2009, 05:27:16 AM: Try this:

Add <dir name="ASTEROIDS" type="int" value="0" /> under the Game directory after EnemyFactionsMax

If that doesn't work, add these two right before Asteroids.

<dir name="BELTRADIUS" type="int" value="20000" />
<dir name="BELTWIDTH" type="int" value="10000" />

These are just guesses. I had the same problem at one point, but I'm not exactly certain how I fixed it.

Do we know which of those added lines got rid of the random asteroids, and why it worked?

Thanks!

Post by: Alex on April 22, 2009, 07:53:43 PM: The main thing is to set the number of asteroids to zero. That will cause the game not to generate any random asteroids.

Post by: Rudolf on April 22, 2009, 08:05:13 PM: You can also set it to the exact number of asteroids you yourself define in the level file, jsut count the asteroids you are creating and use that as your totalasteroid number. Additionally, if you want to have a few more random ones you can increase the asteroid number accordingly. You will need to play with the beldwith and diameter values though :-)
