Sins Of A Solar Empire

Cheat mode

Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the various files in the “/Stardock Games/Sins of a Solar Empire/Galaxy” directory. The following entries should appear at the top of the file:

homeplanetupgradelevel: population
homeplanetupgradelevel: civilianmodules
homeplanetupgradelevel: tacticalmodules
homeplanetupgradelevel: home
homeplanetupgradelevel: artifactlevel
homeplanetupgradelevel: infrastructure

You can change the values as desired. Their meaning and recommended values to try are as follows:

population: Civilian infrastructure. Recommended value “4”.
civilian modules: Logistics capacity Recommended value “2”.
tactical modules: Tactical capacity. Recommended value “2”.
home: Capital planet (default when game starts and cannot change). Recommended value “1”.
artifact level: Exploration (already at maximum when game starts). Recommended value “2”.
infrastructure: Emergency facilities. Recommended value “3”.

Furthermore, you can search the bottom of a file that has a section marked “playercount [#]”. The values for “player 0” are for your character. You can edit the values of “startingcredits”, “startingmetal”, and “startingcrystal” as desired, to a maximum of “9999”.

Stealing resources

Use the following trick to steak resources from other empires in Single Player mode. While playing the game, allow the other empires time to build up their resources. When you want to steal resources, save the game, quit, and then reload another empire to play as. With your other empire, go to the “Diplomacy” menu. Send the resources from your current empire to your original empire. Save the game, quit, and reload your original empire. Repeat this as many times as desired.
