To #1, smortt is right, here is my code (important bits in red), so you get the indentation right.

To make a unit see an invisible unit:

Code:

		<UnitInfo>

librarian ??

SamSniped · Dec 3, 2011

Noer, the problem is that to make the Sniper invisible, i used a bit of code that says <bInvisible>1</bInvisible> Whenever I try what you said to do, it doesn't work. So do I use a different code for the invisibility?

Radio Noer · Dec 3, 2011

Ok, as far as I can tell, if you want the unit to be visible to some but not all, you need this:

Code:

		<UnitInfo>
			<Class>UNITCLASS_SUBMARINE</Class>
			<Type>UNIT_SUBMARINE</Type>
			<UniqueNames/>
			<Special>NONE</Special>
			<Capture>NONE</Capture>
			<Combat>UNITCOMBAT_NAVAL</Combat>
			<Domain>DOMAIN_SEA</Domain>
			<DefaultUnitAI>UNITAI_RESERVE_SEA</DefaultUnitAI>
[COLOR="Red"]			<Invisible>INVISIBLE_SUBMARINE</Invisible>
			<SeeInvisible>INVISIBLE_SUBMARINE</SeeInvisible>[/COLOR]
			<Description>TXT_KEY_UNIT_SUBMARINE</Description>
			<Civilopedia>TXT_KEY_UNIT_SUBMARINE_PEDIA</Civilopedia>
			<Strategy>TXT_KEY_UNIT_SUBMARINE_STRATEGY</Strategy>
			<Advisor>ADVISOR_MILITARY</Advisor>
			<bAnimal>0</bAnimal>
			<bFood>0</bFood>
			<bNoBadGoodies>0</bNoBadGoodies>
			<bOnlyDefensive>0</bOnlyDefensive>
			<bNoCapture>0</bNoCapture>
			<bQuickCombat>0</bQuickCombat>
			<bRivalTerritory>1</bRivalTerritory>
			<bMilitaryHappiness>0</bMilitaryHappiness>
			<bMilitarySupport>1</bMilitarySupport>
			<bMilitaryProduction>1</bMilitaryProduction>

Where INVISBLE_SUBMARINE would be replaced with INVISIBLE_SNIPER (or whatever) and the other unit must have the corresponding SeeInvisible text.

smortt · Dec 3, 2011

and then to define that INVISIBLE_SNIPER in invisibleinfos.xml

SamSniped · Dec 3, 2011

can you give me the code for what you need in the invisibleinfos.xml?

Radio Noer · Dec 3, 2011

Here's all the code in it regularly

Code:

<Civ4InvisibleInfos xmlns="x-schema:CIV4BasicInfoSchema.xml">
	<InvisibleInfos>
		<InvisibleInfo>
			<Type>INVISIBLE_SUBMARINE</Type>
			<Description>TXT_KEY_INVISIBLE_SUBMARINE</Description>
		</InvisibleInfo>
		<InvisibleInfo>
			<Type>INVISIBLE_STEALTH</Type>
			<Description>TXT_KEY_INVISIBLE_STEALTH_NAVY</Description>
		</InvisibleInfo>
[COLOR="Red"]		<InvisibleInfo>
			<Type>INVISIBLE_SNIPER</Type>
			<Description>Sniper</Description>
		</InvisibleInfo>[/COLOR]
	</InvisibleInfos>
</Civ4InvisibleInfos>

Sniper added in red, not sure what the description does so I just changed it to sniper (it normally gives the unit name, I'm guessing it would say "x unit can see Sniper" with this.

SamSniped · Dec 3, 2011

thanks!

SamSniped · Dec 4, 2011

Hey guys, I'm planning for update three now. I have a list of modcomps from Orion Veteran that I was wondering if anyone thought were good ideas. First of all, I am definitely adding his Archery Barrage modcomp. I'm also thinking of adding 2 new wonders, the Art of War and the Walls of Troy. I was wondering, however, on your opinions for the Water Well and Immigration modcomps. Opinions?

EDIT-also adding the Advanced Combat Odds by Piece of Mind

EDIT2-also adding OrionVeteran's Shrimp resource

SamSniped · Dec 17, 2011

UPDATE 3 IS HERE!
Wait. Why isn't it...oh ****. Guess which genius forgot to put the file on his flashdrive? [pissed]

I'll give it to you guys as a Christmas present with a UAV and topsecret's Long Range Mod.
