Game Cheats:
The following cheats are from the original Homeworld. Some of them may or may not work in the remastered version - you'll have to check to make sure. To use these cheats, add the code (the number or word with the "/" at the start) to the shortcut parameters.
You can see those by right-clicking on the icon to see the properties.
If the "/" doesn't work, you can all try a dash "-" instead of the "/".

Unlimited RUs (Resources Units):
Alter your game files at your own risk and ALWAYS make backups!
You can give yourself unlimited RUs in Homeworld (in Classic, Remastered, 1, or 2). Complete the process outlined below carefully.
Find your copy of Homeworld saved on your hard drive, which is often located here: C:Steam Gamessteamappscommon
Once you have found the folder, navigate them in this order: HomeworldRM (folder) --> Bin (folder) --> Profiles (folder) --> Profile1 (folder... this may vary if you have multiple Profiles) --> Campaign (folder) --> Ascension (folder... for "Remastered"... Homeworld Classic if you are playing the 1990's version)
After you have completed at least the first mission, you can scroll down to the bottom of the Ascension folder and you will see Notepad files called "persist2", "persist3", "persist4", etc. Open the latest persist file and scroll to the very bottom. You should see an entry for "RUs". You can update this value to be whatever you like.
