I have discovered that there are at least 4 cheats to ARES.
==gronk in net games, this enables cheats. both players have to type this to start cheating. :rolleyes:
==1999 increases your rate of pay by 12.5 percent 
==lotto money (duh) 
==fsst Makes your ships build instantly. 
I know that there are more, but I don't know what they are.
could someone tell me plz?
-slug
P.S. could someone also tell me how to rename your planet? I KNOW it can be done.
------------------
I think I've said this about five times and nobody has listened to me.
Simply go into the Ares string resource with ResEdit.
There is a string called "cheats" or something like that.
Label the first field "1," second field "2," up to the
eighth field "8."
Now go in the game. The hexidecimal stuff garbles up the codes,
but it is still relatively easy.
I think i GOT what th cheacts do a little mixed up:
1 = Incease pay rate
2 = Decrease " "
3 = Something or other
0 = Instant Build
/ = Something or other } Keypad

==gronk Start cheating in net games
==gort Computer control (all but control ship)
==lotto "Megabucks" 
whazzit Next message you type will be your planet's name (It will not update the control object/target if you have your planet as a control object or target, select something else and reselect your planet to see it's new name)
==drake Your current ship will be invisible (repeating this while in each of your fleet's ships will make all of them invisible, and only works against AIs)
==fsst Instant ship build
==1999 Increase pay rate by (B)1.12(/bB) (try setting it to five on Chapter 6 )
==1969 Opposite of above :frown:
If you want to rename the cheats on your computer, email me ( (url="http://"mailto:tseng@blueneptune.com")mailto:tseng@blueneptune.com(/url)tseng@blueneptune.com
If you want to do it yourself, just make your cheats, paste them in order into the STR# resource in ResEdit, and add 5 to the ASCII value of each character (except the length-bytes!!).
