Airlift mod help ?

[tadinhha]

Does anyone know how to mod CIV IV airlift like CIV III in which more than one unit can arrive in one city per turn ?
Thanks

The number of units that can be airlifted in and out is a property of the Building that allows the Airlift. So to increase the number, you should modify the <iAirlift> element for the Airport in CIV4BuildingInfos.xml

It would make more sense if having an airport in the destination city increased the number of units that could arrive there. I think its a good thing that if you just conquer a new city you can only transport one unit. Otherwise one city could instantly become an invincible foothold into new territory. But in a mature city with an airport, it makes sense that you could have more organized transport flights arriving without much disruption.

Of course you could always find a mod (or mod yourself) a transport plane into the game. Then you can transport anywere in range, even into anothers territory if you have open borders.

isn't that the way it works? my tactic is to wait out revolt then rush an airport so I can get a garrison there fast. only one from any city; but as many as i want to a city

Not sure exactly how you want it, but you could just let an earlier building allow 1 unit in/out via airlift, then a later building (like the Airport) could increase that number.
