Promotions Question

[NferiorSuperior]

I don't use forums very often, so please bare with me.

I use the file that Thalassicus provided in the following forum - http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=399821 - in his second post (TunerMods.zip) because it makes the Live-Tuner more user friendly and streamlined, so kudos on that.

However, regarding promotions, I want to know if it is possible to "sort" them on a per unit or per unit type basis in different "controls" in a panel. For example, the promotions for ranged units (archers, naval units, artillery, etc) don't affect melee units (warriors, infantry, tanks, etc) and neither of those affect aircraft.

For a more descriptive example, let's say I want to promote a Modern Armor unit. Most movement promotions work for that unit (including, oddly enough, heli mobility, naval tradition, and Great Lighthouse), but things such as Accuracy (+Ranged Strength vs. units in open terrain) and Barrage (+Ranged Strength vs. units in rough terrain) would be useless. As such, those promotions I don't want in the list of "melee" unit promotions in that control. I only want things like Shock and Drill (Barrage and Accuracy equivilants respectively) present in that control. I would also like to be able to include the other promotions that I would like present, such as Naval Tradition, Great Lighthouse, etc. Is this possible using the LiveTuner?

Provided pic is a visual example (NOTE: Example done with Alt+PrtScr and Paint! I did not manage to accomlish that in the actual Live-Tuner!):

Yes, you can get LiveTuner to do that, but you may need to write a mod that LiveTuner uses to get the entries for the drop-down - see http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=426171 for a similiar example that splits Techs by Era and Policies by Branch

Yes, dear, that may be true... but I like the way YOU did YOUR mod in the Steam Workshop. Yep, that's me you replied to. xD Formerly known as "Whiskey Makes Me Frisky". Funny how the world turns, isn't it?

I know that's KINDA off topic, but mods, please, laugh at the irony. I wish y'all had a "post without bumping" button!

So now I'm confused (it doesn't take much in my dotage, especially as you keep changing user names!)

Are you still looking for something else/extra on this panel, or are you a "happy bunny" now?

(Reason I ask is I have to fix that annoying bug you mention on the Workshop post, so I may as well make other (useful) changes at the same time)
