I am playing B 13 full with the second update but I can´t find activating key <b>I </b> now. So, how can I anything activate after some exchanging in BuildSettings.h in the course of playing now? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huhh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:k" border="0" alt="huhh.gif" />

build 13. it was done because some people with clumsy fingers kept accidentally pressing it.
 
You usually don't need to Reinitialize for BS.h toggles to take effect. You just need to reload the game. And for some toggles you should start a new game.

One thing you should know: BuildSettings.h is now in the MAIN PotC folder and NOT in the PROGRAM folder anymore. If there is a BS.h file in the PROGRAM folder, remove it to avoid confusion.

Hi Pieter,
For the sake of us lesser mortals here (who are thoroughly enjoying the game !!) this is not to be confused with InternalSettings.h which IS found in the PROGRAM folder and can be used for "Tweaking" some other settings - correct ?

Again, thanks for the SUPERB work you and the team have done, and are continuing, on the game.

Correct. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

BuildSettings.h is NOT in the PROGAM folder and contains the "simple" settings with which to enable/disable the mods you like and tweak them a bit. Any game user should be able to change the settings in this file without really needing any programming knowledge.

InternalSettings.h IS in the PROGRAM folder and contains the more complicated settings. Some programming knowledge is useful when you want to change these settings and understand what these settings do.

In general, the idea is that BuildSettings.h contains the settings for all players, while InternalSettings.h contains the settings used mostly by the modders. Though any player is quite free to also modify InternalSettings.h.
