If cheating is already easy then it must be made easier why? What i anyway care about cheaters?

The point I'm making is that if the file format details were released, there would not be more cheaters as everyone who wants to cheat already has the means to do so. Basically, keeping this secret doesn't help cheaters, it just hurts people who want to do complex game setups, etc. Crying or Very Sad

Not publishing something is not equal with keeping it secret.

This doesn't make sense to me. How is not telling different from keeping a secret? Laughing

The vote seemingly displays nothing like consensus and so it quite likely will stay unpublished. Nod

Maybe so, but I can still argue for why I voted the way I did. Nod

I provided source forge link for a open source Stars! tools project, i gave the list of the persons most of whom (unless all) have the information. Rolling Eyes

My poor English skill fails, or just misses the mark, or what other clues intelligent person who can do "more useful things" needs? Embarassed

The stars tools project is a great thing - I just wonder why people don't want file format info to be available when it makes setting up scenarios easier with no downsides. Rolling Eyes

The point I've been trying to make is that giving out file format info will not mean everyone mods everything and breaks all their games. Laughing

If someone has no ethical problems with cheating, why would they not cheat now? Why would they wait to have the file format information?
