'm now sure why sandbox mod doesn't work with vodyani affinity ( ship bound ) i only want to use the 20slots capacity ) but i cannot make it work.... any other player or modder here have a succes with this?

Hey veveratm!

The maximum population on the arks is defined by the property 'MaximumPopulationCountOnShip' in the SimulationDescriptor 'ClassMothership'.

This value is copied into 'MaximumPopulationFromMothership' on the system (in 'ClassExploitedStarSystem'), and it is used to set the maximum population count on planets.

oh.. and "all of that" can be modified? or i will get crash all the times?

Not completely sure if you're asking this but, yes you can edit the planet population slots without crashing. It's located in SimulationDescriptors[MotherShip] (\Public\Simulation\Battles)
The simplest way I can think of doing this is just straight editing the value of "MaximumPopulationCountOnShip" in the SimulationDescriptor or adding a modifier elsewhere that would force it to the desired value

Navigate to your steam folder where you have the game installed, open the game folder and open the simulation folder and the battle folder in it and find SimulationDescriptors[Mothership].xml File.
The path should look something like this ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Endless Space 2\Public\Simulation\Battles

The XML file can be opened in any text editor

The number you want to edit is in the 12th line

<Property Name="MaximumPopulationCountOnShip"   BaseValue="20"   />

There should be other number than 20 because I forgot to return it to its normal value when trying it out yesteday, think its 3

omg it works, you guys are the best !

Thank-you so much
