About EDITZ

EDITZ is the saved game editor for Trooperz 2.09 and upper. This editor is powerful, 'nasty' with your data (it can edit anything from the saved game), nice with your system, amazingly fast and easy to use.

How to use

Editz shows much stuff in the I/O screen at startup, don't look at it (it's only useless programming stuff). Just choose the game from the list which opens (selecting -Empty- slots will quit). From there, a big screen and a new toolbar are all yours. To use the program properly you must:

  1. Choose something to look at using the INFO menu.
  2. Press EDIT if you want to edit what you see.
  3. Use SAVE to store your modifications.
  4. Select QUIT when you are finished with Editz.
  5. Click here to know about the other menus.

INFO menu

When you select INFO from the Toolbar a big Popup Menu shows up. Its items are organized this way:

  1. Player 1 name
  2. Player 1 unit 1 name
  3. Player 1 unit 2 name
  4. Player 1 unit 3 name
  5. Player 1 unit 4 name
  6. Player 2 name
  7. Player 2 unit 1 name
  8. Player 2 unit 2 name
  9. Player 2 unit 3 name
  10. Player 2 unit 4 name
  11. Game name
Selecting a player name will show all info about the player and the game settings:
Playername
Attack ratio
Battlefield ID
Number of turns played
Who's turn is it to play
Number of alive units
Selecting a unit will show all its characteristics:
Attack
Shields
Damage
Move
Range
Health
Y position
X position
Finally, selecting the game name will show the game name and that's all :).

To edit any piece of data which shows up, press EDIT and see below.

EDIT menu

When EDIT is pressed, you will be proposed to give new values to all the data displayed on screen. For example, if you are looking at unit 1 from player 1 and then press EDIT, you will be asked to give a new name to the unit, then to give it a new Attack, a new Shields, and so on.

At any time you can press ESC to quit the EDIT system. All the changes you made before pressing ESC will be applied, and all values you did not edit will stay untouched.

To save your editz, press SAVE.

Other menus

The HELP menu lets you view a little window which says in brief what this page says in long(er).
The OPEN menu lets you open a new game to edit. Don't forget to SAVE before using this menu.
The QUIT menu is the kind of menu you will still find on computers and TI-89 in two centuries.

That's all Editz brings to you. It should be enough to cheat, to make some changes or to have fun.
