New system I modded in free time (Vice or anyone who has modded the game help-Please)

[SDWeimer]

To Vice or anyone who has succesfully modded their game.

I recently made this system and was wondering why in the nav map the coords have an extra zero on the end? It is not that big of deal, Just a question. Remember I am just messing around with the file and have backed up the original file.

For the file, you need to divide actual Position coordinates by ten:

universedata's "PlanetPosX=-4000"

equals

nav map's X position of -40000

That is kind of weird any thoughts on my other questions forum posters?????

Also am having toruble putting a wormhole or gate in main system successfully, as of yet I have only tried the Sapphire system. I have aslo edited the file to include three more wormhole but the third one won't work, I have it right after a black hole and its corresponding wormhole, not sure if that is the problem. Sometimes I wonder why I tried to create this when I work full time go to college and work a 40 hour a week job. I guess I just did it to se if I could.

Reputation=3 <-does changing this affect system rep?

Yes, your global system rep. It sets the default value to start with, which you can then change by playing the game. 0 = Good, 1 = Fair, 2 = Moderate, and 3 = Hostile.

That's up to you. You can match smaller nebulae with the color scheme of a background nebulae, or use different designs.

also wondering if I should edit this part to match system info
I just copied and pasted most of the info.

Make sure the entire area is defined to match the size of the reputation code block, but you can subdivide this section into smaller sections of space if you want to. So if you want to have one solar system that has a much higher level of ship configurations to confront, you can specify a smaller section of space within the larger reputation section that has the higher values. Just be sure to fill in all areas of the reputation code block with the ship type code blocks.

Thanks for help Vice will put to good use. I have to say this is one of the easiest games I have played to mod for the uninitated in programming languages.
sorry to anyone offended by my rampant spelling errors.
