How do you make a unit not obsolete?

[501st Legion]

I want to recruit Chu-Ko-Nu in late game when I already have Future Tech. Any way to make the game ignore this line

<UnitType>UNIT_CHINESE_CHUKONU</UnitType>
<UnitClassType>UNITCLASS_RIFLEMAN</UnitClassType>

via XML?

To make units not obsolete, you just need to modify the line:

<ObsoleteTech>TECH_TELEGRAPH</ObsoleteTech>

Or whatever Tech it is. Change it (using update tags for whatever unit) to:

<ObsoleteTech>NONE</ObsoleteTech>

And that should stop obsolescence.

Does this work for unit upgrades?

I don't see why not; I found that <ObsoleteTech> tag within Civ5Units.xml...

If you get rid of the obsolete tech the unit doesn't become obsolete, but you can still upgrade it if you want to.

Okay, I followed what you suggested... and it works.

Thanks a lot.
