Here comes the question of the lazy man

[gunter]

Hi, I will play Bts after the latest 3.13 patch only but I already know I would like every single unit to be able to perform lethal attacks.

Which is the quickest way to that ? I mean is it neccesary to tweak every single unit xml file or is there a quickest way ?

In addiiton,can I expect the AI will properly use this tweak ?

Thanks a lot in advance

 

[gunter]

Any hints ?

Thanks

What d you mean by lethal attacks?

 

[Cabay Jet]

He means either make the player's units outrageously strong or make siege weapons able to destroy things again.

 

[gunter]

Nope, I mean the same ability for the AI and human to destroy everything to 100 % , not ridicolous percentgages only.

And yes , siege weapons able to annihilate other units / cities ... of course for both the AI and human player.

Thanks

VERY easy method

use the simplest level of game difficulty with "aggressive ai" turned OFF

check "no barbs"

 

[Cabay Jet]

Does that allow siege weapons to kill? I think not.

with the caveat that I haven't looked at BtS to see how they did the Siege Weapon change...

Here is an example of modifying Fighters to be able to kill land and sea units:

go into the XML files.

find Civ4UnitInfos in the Units subfolder.

find the following entry:
<UnitInfo>
<Class>UNITCLASS_FIGHTER</Class>
<Type>UNIT_FIGHTER</Type>

within that unit's data is the following:
<iAirCombatLimit>50</iAirCombatLimit>

change this to 100, fighters now can kill land and sea units.

Same change should be trivial for any air unit.

save the changes in your Custom Assets file under My Games rather than overwriting the original, please.

Excellent explanation,that is just I was looking for

Thanks a lot !
