Who knows... :)<br><br>Actually we haven't planned for it, but that might change. Havn't decided that yet. Cheatcodes generally destroys the fun in a game...

No, there won't. CARPE if you add cheat codes I will personally hunt you down, carve out your gullet, and spill your intestines on the ground.

But it is good with cheat codes, when you're stuck (which I am all the time :)). When it gets too frustrating, you can turn on the cheat codes and then you will at least get too se the whole game.

You're lame. If a game is made with cheat codes in mind like you suggest then it's not a game, it's a task.

But if you pay for a game, then you will probably at least get through it in some way. And if you're not good at RTS games, it is one way to see the end of the game.<br>And when you're through the first time you may want to do some bad @$$ armies and bases, and that requires more resources than you get by playing "in a normal way".

If you're not good at RTS games, why buy them?<br><br>There will be no cheats, atleast not published ones, please CARPE. Cheats ruin a good game, and what it would do to a great game like Argentum is unthinkable.

But maybe there could be something like in C&C Red Alert(1). The "rules.ini" ;D<br>Ok I'll stop whining about cheats now.

i don't know... i admit i've used cheatcodes in the hardest levels of Starcraft Broodwars, who knows... maybe we'll put a few cheats in and tell you guys how to activate them some months after releasing the game.<br>and about the: "rules.ini".<br>Fredrik made sure to pack all the files into one big file that won't be editable. So once you pack your own custom level, there's no way to modify it once packed, you  have to modify the "source" in order to make changes.<br>

Not sure if I will release the level packer right away though. Right now it is a Windows Scripting Host script (JScript) which would make it very easy to make a file extracter and thus destroying the whole point. <br><br>As for general mods you don't need to pack them. They work great as normal files aswell. We'll probably make the packer into a executable later on. Or maybe release it to some of the mayor MOD:ers. <br><br>Anyways, way we all love you guys for supporting us through this forum and giving suggestions for what should be in the game.<br><br>// Fredrik<br>
