I Need A Unit Tech Obsolete Mod

[keldath]

can someone help and make a small mod for me,

for my overlord2 modpack,

that enables tech to obsolete units?

thanks for anyone who replies.

I'm not really sure what you mean, keldath. Do you mean that you want a tech that prevents you from building a unit once the tech is discovered? Because I had a similar request: basically, it seems like the only way to keep units from being built later in the game is to assign them an upgrade path. However, sometimes you really don't want a unit to be able to upgrade. So it would be easier just have them go obsolete entirely.

Maybe this is already possible, but if so I do not know how. I guess you could create a dummy unit that can never be built and have it upgrade to that, but there might be other issues involved.

Gaius Octavius,
hi,

you got it right thats what i want,

dom pedro had a minimod just like it, the only problem, its for warlords, and i couldnt update it to bts......and he wont do it....

You guys just keep turning out SDK and Python modcomps like there's no tomorrow! I only hope this doesn't go obsolete with the Discovery of BtS.

Looks like my prediction turned out to be true then.

I know I haven't been good about updating my mod comps... just been so deeply buried in making new ones.

I looked at the source code and it does not appear too difficult to update to BtS, so perhaps I will do it myself. I need this kind of thing for my own purposes anyway.

It's basically just a few new functions to check for obsolescence and the appropriate text entries, right DPII?
