The cheat.bat file is for people who already have a working rules.ini file in their dir that they like, just type "cheat" at the DOS prompt inside your RA dir (yeah im still using windows 3.11) and it should give you the new settings and set you back to your normal setting after the game.
For those of you who dont have a copy of rules.ini in your RA dir then just stick rules.con into your RA dir and rename it to Rules.ini. If you dont wanna use these settings anymore simply delete rules.ini and you should be back to normal
You may distribute these files as you wish, but anybody attempting to use these files commercially contact me first.....oh yeah and include this unmodified text file with any distribution.........LATERZ.
