I'm glad to see that the system editor is being polished up a bunch! I'll probably go and play some PA for the first time in a while, to see if this stuff works!
The system editor is a work in progress... full CSG parameter editing will eventually replace that part of Direct Edit.
As long as it is a bit more stable than the previous one, I'm happy. I got fed up with making sweet systems and then having them deleted as soon as I saved the system and closed the editor...
There should be zero data loss now... after losing my test system CSG two weeks ago I was motivated enough to perform open heart surgery on the system editor.
Is there any word on AI supported Unit Manager/Tech Selection? With SupCom I often played against one or more AI's with friends using no nukes, meat grinder or some other weapon exclusion enabled. Would love to see it supported on PA:Titans
