=== 2) Using the Mod

Edit path.txt

From:
     Using Mod Directory                                               := None
To:
     Using Mod Directory                                               := Kwok's Galaxy Mod

Or use Matryx's Mod Launcher, which will automatically launch a mod of your choice without the need to
manually edit the path.txt file.

=== 3) Contact

E-mail: capt-kwok@rogers.com
Website: http://www.captainkwok.com/home.php

Please contact me if you intend to use large elements of Kwok's Galaxy Mod in a mod you 
intend to make public.


=== 4) Background

Kwok's Galaxy Mod contains a slightly modified set of data files that were developed for use with my
Space Food Empires mod.  Since that mod remains uncomplete at this time and SE:V is on the horizon, 
I felt I should go ahead and put together some of the files for release as they contain some 
unique elements not available in other SE:IV mods.


=== 5) Merging with Another Mod

You can merge the Kwok's Galaxy Mod with some mods like the TDM-Modpack quite easily.  Copy the other mod's
folder and give it a new name to create a new mod folder.  Then copy the SystemTypes.txt, SectType.txt, 
QuadrantTypes.txt, and StellarAbilityTypes.txt, and SystemNames.txt from the Kwok's Galaxy Mod folder to 
the new mod's data folder, overwriting the existing files.
