That's all. I know it looks corny but i wanted him to be the best unit. please tell me how to fix this so he doesnt die everytime he's attacked and he can fly over water and not only land

oh yeah, one more thing. for some reason, the lava giant i downloaded from apolyton can attack more than once but no other unit can do this but the army. how can i give this ability to other units?

 

[PCHighway]

Many units can do this, and it's by checking the 'Blitz' flag.

 

[computerdude113]

As per your request to make it fly over land and water, it can't be done, sorry.

Ok, computerdude113, thanx alot for your help. I've realized and learned a bit from you and other ppl. I have another question though. If I cannot make a unit like a Gundam fly over water, what about making him amphibious? Yeah there's a problem there too. I made my Gundam a land unit, and then I selected the 'Amphibious' flag. But when I save the game, then load the scneario and play it, he stays on land when I tell him to go in the water! PLEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEE help me with this! I'm a lil frustrated here! As long as there is a way to get a unit to go on land and water without dying when attacked, I'll keep looking. But I need help!

 

[computerdude113]

From what I remember (haven't actually played Civ in a LONG time ) amphibious only means that it can attack a city/unit from a boat to land, like the Marine I believe. It doesn't mean that it can walk around on water. However that is something that would be great for firiax to put in for a WWII scenerio, DUCK units

 

[Neomega]

The best simulation to make a gundam unit, (as I have in my mod) is to give it all terrain as roads, and paradrop range equaling three times it's movement. It will not be able to attack ships however.... unless you give it artillery attack.

Teh ai would use it correctly.... except for the artillery attack.

NeOmega, what do you mean 'Paradrop Range'???
I can't find that anywhere on the unit editor thing!

The airdrop ability. Click it then give it an operational range of 3 times your movement range. Then it can fly over small areas of water.
