By chance, I did this last week. However, I still wanted to say thanks, just because this kind of information is great. I'm sure lots of people will find it useful.

You should post this in the guides section and ask a Mod to sticky it.
Saved to my "CoH stuff" file. Thanks.
Doh! I must have left my brain in bed. I didn't even think of the Guides section when I posted it. I'll see if I can get it moved and stickied.
did you download the new mids? mine did this automatically after the update.

I was playing with some builds using Mid's today and became annoyed with not being able to select a travel power before level 14 as I am able to do in-game as a 63 month Vet. So, I decided to tinker around with it to see if I could get it to do so until such time Mid's is updated. Now that I have it sorted out I thought I'd share what I did if there's any other Vets out there using Mid's that like to take their travel early.
Here's what you need to do:
Start Mid's and select Options > Advanced > Database Editor
On the Editor window that pops up click "Main Database Editor". This will open the Power Database Browser.
In the 'Group' pane on the left scroll down and select 'Pool'. In the middle pane you will see the various Power Pools and in the right pane you will see the powers of the selected pool.
Select the 'Flight' pool then in the right pane double click on 'Fly' to bring up the 'Edit Power' window.
Click on the 'Power Attributes' tab and change 'Level Available' to 6.
Next click on the 'Requirements' tab and click on the 'Set Power A to None' button twice so there is nothing in the 'Required Powers' section.
Click OK.
Select the Leaping pool and and do the same for Super Jump.
Select the Speed pool and do the same for Super Speed.
Select the Teleportation pool and do the same for Teleport.
Now double click 'Teleport Foe' and on the right side of the window check "Priority Sort Order" and click OK.
This will ensure that Teleport Foe will be listed before Teleport in the list as it normally is. Changing the level availibility of Teleport causes it to get sorted before Teleport Foe otherwise.
Click 'Save & Close' on the bottom right side.
Click 'Close' on the Database Editor window.
Restart Mid's and you'll be able to select your travel powers starting at level 6.
I have auto-update off. You may need to turn it off as well as Mid's may notice a discrepancy and try to re-update to the last version which would undo your changes.
Hope someone finds this as useful as I do.
