GalaxyForge questions

from Stardock Forums

I'm just getting in to the GalaxyForge editor and I am unable to change what buildings and ships planets spawn with.  I want to create a heavily defended planet with dozens of gauss platforms and hangars and a couple of capitol ships too.  All I can get, though, is either a default template (for example, the pirate base will have 19 gauss platforms and the default number of ships) or nothing.

Can anyone help me fix this?

If the planet is owned by a player, it will always start with a frigate factory, but you can add more. 

 

Right click on the planet you wish to edit, and choose the "edit" option.  This will open a window for you.  Under "group manager" click the "add" action.  This will allow you to use the group editor.

You can now click on individual items (such as gauss cannons) to have them spawn into the planet, and also change the conditions on which they spawn.  You should probably ensure that TEC gauss cannons spawn only for a TEC player, and the other races get their own equivalent.  Just as an aside "cannon" means superweapon, so be mindful that if you place two or three "cannons" in your worlds they start with two or three superweapons.

I suggest reading this thread https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/329520, it helped me a LOT in creating my OWN militia forces on planets in my maps
