I've had a relapse in my Alpha Centauri addiction...the fifth or sixth relapse actually. They all run a similar course. I start playing, wonder how the heck I used to win on transcend level, either figure it out or remember it, then try some different factions (but end up playing them basically the same way) and eventually 'recover' and go find a different game to play...knowing that I'll eventually come back unless someone out there makes another truly great game. This time around I'm on a different course, thanks to having wandered in here.
I'm going to learn about modifying, from scratch, and keep track of my progress here. Three reasons:
1) From experience, without taking notes somewhere I'll remain completely lost.
2) Most of the modding discussion seems to be going way over my head, and I don't know enough to ask questions, but if some experienced modders check in and see where I'm really at they might be able to give advice that I'll understand.
3) Some other beginner types might stumble across the record of my errors and gain something from it.
So that's what this thread is about. If you don't like it, don't read it.
