I didn´t find anything in unitinfos about when units become obsolete. How can I change this ?

( I want to be able to build Riflemen even after Infantry becomes available for garrison purposes, amd maybe Cavalry after Gunships become available just for fun.)
 
The game decides this based on unit upgrades. As soon as you can build all upgrades of a unit, the unit is not available anymore.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Riflemen only upgrade to Infantry, so as soon as you can build Infantry they become unavailable. You can circumvent this by adding another upgrade to Riflemen. For example, if you have the Rifleman -> Infantry -> Mechanised Infantry chain, you can add Mechanised Infantry as a possible Rifleman upgrade and they will remain available as long as Infantry is.
 
Thank you. Do you know whether I could cheat by for example adding Warrior as a upgrade ? As Warrior is no longer and will never again be available, this would mean no obsolescence ever.
 
No, because you fulfill all requirements to build the warrior for the entire game. I think that is a surefire way to make a unit entirely unavailable :D
 
Thank you. So I would have to invent a Future Infantry available with Future Tech to keep Infantry around after Mechanized Infantry becomes available until then ?
 
I think you would need to, yes.
