Ships have different mission settings, they do more than one task if necessary, or if the ship is able to. Currently most, of the race based special mission are in the program, but not all.

Note, Admiral just affects the standard host data, it doesn't create a TRN file. Putting a TRN file in for a player that Admiral has already played will cause problems, however, if Admiral finds a TRN file in the directory it will not run that turn.

The best way to use this is to unpack your RST, run your client, run econtrol, and then run your client again. This way you can check the modifications.

Home World operates very simply. If the home world is captured from the original owner of the home world, some of the original owner's planets and ship may join the new owner. If the original owner of the home world recaptures it from an invader, some of the invader's planets may join the original owner. If the home world is destroyed, but not occupied, as when you capture the Crystals 100 temp home world, the effects are halved.

Any planet or ship that does join another race will probably have some damage or loss of crew/colonists, as the loyalists had to be disposed of before the ship or planet could join a new race.

Successful salvaging of debris will tell you what you discovered, and unsuccessful salvaging may mean you lose some systems, minerals, or even lose a relic.

Many types of relics exist. They range from computer viruses that cause ships, planets and bases to do strange things, to viruses that may affect populations, to high powered explosive devices capable of destroying or damaging anything within the blast radius.

The Tactical VCR 2 Host program is freeware. The Tactical VCR 2 Viewer (tactview.exe) is a shareware program. If you wish to view battles after turn 30, you have to register. There are no restrictions on using the simulator.

Tactical VCR is a mass combat system, which uses specific tactics, speeds and primary target sets for each ship. By using varying tactics fleets will be better able to engage the enemy in battle and survive. Ships are no longer be required to go in and slug it out at point blank range until they are dead.

T_FORMER speeds the terraforming of planets. For every three turns that a planet is being terraformed an additional degree of temperature change is gained per ship. If a ship leaves a planet and then comes back the sequence starts over. Default is 3.

Each race can Quantum Terraform twice. It can be done twice on the same planet if necessary. The effects are a perfect temperature planet of 50, or if you are the Crystals, 100 degrees.
