Alright I know you all hate cheaters and all, but I have beaten the game (at least 4 or 5 trys on the hard levels)
I wanted to try the cheats, but the SOB's don't work.

Ah, but one must first prove that he is worthy and responsible before we can give them the cheats. Answer these questions:
1. Which cheats are you using, and which version do you have?
2. How were you trying to use them?
3. What do you intend to use the cheats for?
4. How much will you pay me to tell you how to get them to work?
5. Are you planning on making any plugs?

**I need specific names. There are two sets of cheats, only one set works with 1.1.1.

**What do you mean, "just for fun"? It's fun to always win with no contest?

**Well, that really lowers the chances of me telling you.

**Bah. The only place I use cheats often is when making plugs, when I need to get something done quickly to see how something works. That and helping others learn Ares in multiplayer are the two main really good ways to use them.

Some cheats have their merits. I still get a kick out of using the resource cheat on chap. 17, letting the auds capture all stations, and having a hell of a fight.

There are very few levels I condone the use of cheats on: level 19, and any with Flak Drones. Also, when my prefs file gets corrupted, sometimes I use cheats to finish the game again. But that doesn't apply to 1.1.1.

Moral cheating situations:
1. Plug developing. Cheats can be SO useful.
2. Training. I used to train Tyrael in multiplayer, and cheats made things go a lot quicker, and allowed me to get in the action without any AI ships noticing me, so I could observe.
3. Anger management.
4. Making a scenario much, much better than it already is, like what Sargatanus mentioned.------------------

Because the average cheater doesn't use cheating in any of those situations, and most cheaters are the average cheater.

**Are you saying you're the lowly average cheater? They can cheat by "making a plug better." You have to look at both justifications of the ends.

I don't use it like that, although I'd be all right with it. But people often want to cheat just to win, which is silly, and I don't like it. And he has no proof that he's beaten the game, and I could understand somebody that wanted cheats saying they'd beaten the game in order to get them.

Hey, I was making a scenario and had to spend thirty minutes just to test the second level. Why? Because I had to go through the first level before I could test the second. Cheats would have made the whole thing SO MUCH EASIER! Why not just give us the crappy cheats?

You just duplicate the file, then delete level one of the copy! That's how I always did it, anyway...

Just a thought- beat the level before you complete it. It saves a whole lot of complications, so long as you have at least the basics of the next one sorted out.
