[Celtic Warrior]

I am trying to create an Classical Era Mod. I have succesfully deleted the techs I dont want.

My problem is that the order should be

castle --> siege tech --> future tech

but the tech tree sticks siege tech on the far right of the tree in the information era after future tech.

Also the siege tech should be in UI row 3 and the the future tech in UI row 0, however in the tech tree the appear the opposite way round.

Here is the xml:

There was some errors I cleaned up in there.

the UI error is fix expect for the major issue of the Siege Tactics is still at the end. Note you cant change the era of the future tech because that is causing the UI black screen.

This may an era error and perhaps the eras need to be removed as well

 

[Mynex]

The tech tree works in 2 ways... Row wise is position you can set... Column wise is dependent on the cost assigned to the actual tech itself.

There's a few examples of this already running about... go take a look at JZ Tech Tree... I think that's one of the better ones to read through and see how it's done (it's a complete tech overhaul, so that should help you a lot).

 

[Golan v]

can u make a mod for every single era? that will be cool!

 

[nbl007]
