Thank you very much Gedemon, you have done great job with this mod.

It seems doesnt work. Tank Destroyers still cant attack enemies...

 

[Gedemon]

Will work only for units created after the change.

Sorry but doesnt work. Even after game reloading Tank Destroyers still cant attack. I am sending my xml file.

Ho yes, sorry, now I remember that's it's more difficult to do than just the XMl part, you also need to remove all ranged value from the units SQL defines and edit one Lua file (don't remember which one) to remove the code that mark the tank destroyer as "MadeAttack" at beginning of each turn to prevent them to use the ranged ability like artillery against any unit...

I'm sorry, I don't have the time ATM to provide more help on this kind of core modification.

ok, maybe you think about adding attack ability in 0.45?

No, IMO Tank Destroyer with offensive capabilities are Assault Guns, I'd prefer to discuss which units should switch class.
