Bah, I remember Karel++. It's not such a bad teaching tool for the very basics, one just wishes it'd be a bit more extensive.

BTW for anyone who's wondering Karel's a little BS computer language and it has this editor thing where you make a world and there's a little robot that can move around, and pick up and put down these little things, and you "program" the little pretend robot to do things, like getting out of a maze by telling him to follow one wall until he's out, re-arranging the beeper things into varrying patterns, etc. It's a lot easier get a feel for how things are working. Seeing the robot zoom off in the wrong direction and fall off the edge of his little world makes it easier to understand what's wrong with your method instead of, "PARAMETER TYPE MISMATCH!" or the like.

Too bad I don't have nearly enough C++ experience, I haven't worked with it for years now.  Sad

Although I myself don't speak russion, well I do have an imported Japanese keyboard for my Gamecube which has romantic letters in upper left hand corner of keys and Japanese characters in the lower right hand corner. A key that replaces the tilde (~) key switches between each set of characters. Can't think of a really good pic to show you off the top of my head, sorry.

Well this is my first post here but I've looked through the fourm several times and after all of the very unreasonable and nasty responses to this question I felt I had to say something. After a little bit of searching I found a save editor that the board memember Mu made. I've been using it with ver 0.1 but I haven't tried it with the new unnofficial update. The editor can change your ship's loadout, crew on board, RU, Fuel, and landers. Unfortunately it cannot give you credits or technology, or edit the ships in your fleet.

Although I will admit with a simple search you could have avoided posting, considering the chances of you being the first person to think of posting about this are low.  Tongue


And here's the link to the editor.
