So I put in a flavor unit (first unit ive ever added) looks fine in game seems to work ok but I have 2 problems.


Problem 1: In game in the tech tree it shows the icon for the flavor unit instead of the the general spearman icon. What controls what shows up there?


Problem 2: I cant assign the A.I. any tactics to use for the unit. The only availible checkbox is Explore cant seem to figure out why :(


Thanks in advance

- The Carp

Check the "Capture" box in the Units tab for problem #2. :scan:

If that doesn't do the trick check other boxes until the offense and defense strategies become available.

Problem 1: the pediaicons.txt file controls all of that

In particular, a line that looks like this:

#ICON_PRTO_Settler
art\civilopedia\icons\units\00settlerlarge.pcx
art\civilopedia\icons\units\00settlersmall.pcx

The pcx files pointed to in these entries determines the pictures you'll see in the Civilopedia and City screens.

Hope this helps. :)
