Features: -v1.1- - Randomly generate scenarios using the Scenario Tool. Tailor the ranges of the randomness to your liking. - Open/Save .sce files for later compilation. - Launch compiled scenarios directly from the Scenario Tool. -v1.0- - You can have as many nations as you like, and each nation will fight together as their own faction. - Designating multiple ships as allows the player to control each of those ships as if they were the captain. Nation does not matter. Notes: -v1.1- -"Begin2.exe" must be in the same folder as the Scenario Tool to launch or generate a scenario. - Compiling a .sce file will output a .sco file with the Scenario Title as the file name, which may make a copy of the .sce if you save the scenario under a different name than the title. - .sce Files are now used to pull up scenario information provided the .sce and .sco files have the same file name. - Begin2 doesn't seem to work properly with multiple nations in the random scenario generator. Set the min/max nations to 1 to avoid problems. -v1.0- - "scene.exe" must be in the same folder as the tool or the compiler will not work. - There must be at least one designated ship in your forces (no ships crashes Begin2) - The summary, description, and objective sections of the scenario are all optional. These features are not accessible from within Begin2. - Coordinate units are equal to the units used in Begin2. So a coord of (500, 0) is a range of 500 heading 90 from point (0, 0) Future Features: I hope to implement these features in the future. - Implementing outsourced AI files for richer battles (currently runs using for all computer AI, so only simple skirmishes can really be created with this tool.) - Merging scene.exe into the tool.exe to make one package. Bugs or Suggestions: -If you encounter any program errors please send them to castral01@gmail.com, or likewise any suggestions you might have for an improved version.
