Hello,
I was browsing UnitPromotions_UnitCombat table when I wondered where are those UnitCombatTypes defined ? I was expecting to find a UnitCombatTypes table but there's only a UnitCombatInfos...
 
UnitCombatInfos is the table - see wiki here

If Firaxis kept a consistent naming, the table would be called just "UnitCombats" (unit types are in Units, building types are in Buildings, etc). The reason of the Infos on the end is to do with the C++ class name within the DLL - UnitCombatTypes are hard-coded to a degree, in that you can't add new ones (IIRC) without the animations in the UI breaking.
 
OK. I was just expecting some other variables rather than just the description.
Thank you! :thanx:

Sorry for necroing such an old thread, but do you remember if this is something that is addressed in the VMC DLL?
 
DLL VMC does nothing with the graphics engine (that's in a different DLL that we don't have the source code for) ...

so "yes" I do remember, but "no" it doesn't address this (as it can't)
