In single player mega shields and antimatter work for all factions. Did anyone else notice this?

Its meant to, to fix this problem, make sure you don't move your mouse over enemy ships, (unless you have the damage one on ).

Read the document that came with the trainer and you will see that this is by design. The change works on ships you mouse-over and you can add or remove shields, hull and antimatter. This will allow you to nerf the enemy with no shields or antimatter, or nearly instantly destroy them (if they are taking any damage) by removing shields and hull.

Just be careful not to blow up your own ships.

That doesn't to seem the case with me. When I activate those cheats, everybody have them enabled. I noticed this when everybody was dying on one of my planets. I think clicking would be better... speaking of which, is there a way to disable those cheats?

Its only enabled for everyone if you dont read the instructions.

Numpad 1: Credits - 1000000 Credits
Numpad 2: Metal - 1000000 Metal
Numpad 3: Crystals - 1000000 Crystals
Numpad 4: Mega Hull - 50000 Hull
Numpad 5: Damage Hull - Hull nearly drained
Numpad 6: Mega Shields - 50000 Shields
Numpad 7: Damage Shields - Shields nearly Drained
Numpad 8: Mega Antimatter - 50000 Antimatter
Numpad 9: Drain Antimatter - Antimatter nearly Drained
Numpad + : Mega Logistics Slots - 1000 slots available for planet
Numpad - : Mega Tactical Slots - 1000 slots available for planet
Numpad / : Instant Develop Planet - Instant Develop Planet
Numpad * : Instant Research - Instant Research


Pressing Numpad 4 gives the selected unit a mega hull of 50,000, once it has 50,000 press numpad 4 to turn off the option, if you leave it on then yes the other side will have it as well when you move your mouse over the unit.

So just enable it on your side then once you have selected the units whether ships or buildings then turn it off.

Same applies to Shields and Antimatter, turn it on for your side selecting the units then once each unit has 50,000, turn it off, then go attack the other side.

Very simple, dont say it doesnt work as it does, tried and tested with several people.

I did read the instructions (or else I wouldn't be here). And even pressed 4numpad again to deactivate it. But the weird thing is that after a battle, some pirate ships arrive at my planet with 5000 hull... which was really weird. The cheat was deactivated.

And I am not claiming that doesn't work for everybody, just for me. I know you guys are quite annoyed with the "zomg my cheats dont works!!11" sorta of posts (I read those as well) but please have a little patience, something must be out of order right? Even if I am wrong...

Anyway, if that happens again, I will sure post a video or a record file. Thank you very much.

Drakulakun we dont get annoyed, reporting that it doesnt work is good news for the creators in making sure that if it is an error that it doesnt happen again. The only way the other side can get 50,000 is if you touch them, it is quite easy to do without even knowing you did it.

Best to zoom in and make sure you only do your own ships or bases.

Good Luck.

Yup same thing happened to me I read the doc activated it moused over one of my fleets turned it off then when they got into a battle with other ships after 5 min I notice the same amount of ships checked them and saw they had 5000 shields FTW? also pirates on another planet were 5000 shields then i went to the drain shields and moused over the unit by my planet and they started blowing up then i noticed mine were too checked mine and lo and behold my shields were drained
