Kinda new here so just ignore me if my questions are dumb. I am using the Extreme borders 1.7.0. I have trouble loading more than 1 .p# file. the only way I can get it to read multiple files is by merging them in excel. Then all the habs are screwed up. and depending on whose files are at top or bottom the information my be older than that available.

Strangly I have had it work once? Could the .P# files be corrupted by other player editing before sending?

I can give all the details to anyone who is interested and has the time to help out a newbie

Also with my limited use of Stars! utilities I have found Borders to be the coolest (pretty Colors). However the one improvement I would recommend is the addition of a fleets file upload.
my my 2 cents


To get the best use out of Xtreme Borders, you need to use P?? files where ?? is the player number. To get planet dumps like this you need to add NewReports=1 under the [Misc] section of your stars.ini file found in your windows directory and also be using Version I or above.

All your players/allies will have to do the same.

Xtreme Borders can deal with one PLA file (the default) or P?? files. It checks for P?? files, then for PLA files.

Please feel free to email me with any other problems.
