Help / A17 Faction Base Customization
May 24, 2017, 06:41:57 PM
Hi,
I noticed that in A17 the setup of faction bases had changed from A16. I.e. More diverse defenses and rooms. As a result I was wondering where the files to modify that setup would be located as I couldn't find them in A16 or A17 after looking in the Core folder as I'm looking to create custom faction bases.

Thanks
