I would like any and all (accurate)information on editing of the Alpha.txt.
What you did, how you did it and why, and what was the result in the "feel" of the game play?
One specific question: If the tech setting is reduced to 50 will this speed up or slow down tech research?
Another specific question: Is there a way to disable missles or otherwise work around the teleporting missle bug.
I am also wondering if someone has a list of the bonus cheats that the AI has on the top difficulty settings.
All replies welcome on the board or by e-mail.

On your first question: it will slow down research (by a half in this case) - the number is a percentage of the "normal" research rate.
On your second question: well, you can tinker with the tech tree/#weapons...
