Hi,
I'd like to change the recruitment area for my Makedonian Klerouchoi Phalangitai to something more like the Seleukids have. I wouldn't mind if they were just plain everywhere recruitable, I could easily restrict myself to recruit them only where I have built Katatoikiai and the respective lvl3 local MIC.
What do I have to do? Which file to change? Thank you. :smiley:
This is simple. Open export_descr_buildings.txt file. Now look for unit you are interested in, make sure you only change lines that have your faction mentioned between brackets {} and delete all hidden resources requirements.Quote:

Delete all other entries in the same building. They are not necessary anymore.
If there are more factions then yours mentioned between brackets {}, copy the whole line and paste it below original.
Delete your faction name from original line and delete all but your faction from new line. Now delete all resources requirements from new line.
In all other lines in the same building for chosen unit delete your faction from brackets {} (if there is more then one faction mentioned or whole line if its only your faction ).
Always make backup a file before you start to change it!

Thank you, LorDBulA. I'll try that and may ask again when I encounter problems. :smiley:
For what do all these lines stand? For every province where this specific unit is recruitable? Or are these all the possible combinations of hidden_resources which enable recruitment of that unit?
And if I want to add recruitment in a specific province, I have to find out the hidden_resources of that province (in that "province file" I think, seen it somewhere) and add them in a line?
Yes each combination of resources uniquely identifies a province.Quote:

Example:
I have posted list of hidden resources for each province not so long ago you should easily find it using forum search option.Code:hidden_resource NW and hidden_resource B and hidden_resource n1 and hidden_resource n2 and hidden_resource n4 and hidden_resource y8
Yes. You have to create new line and add proper hidden resources to it.Quote:

And if you want to delete recruitment for specific province you have to delete proper line.
Be careful with editing recruitment by hand. We had a lot of troubles doing so. Its easy to produce CTD. I would recommend baby steps approach.
Thank you LorDBulA. :smiley:
Also: be sure to save the file in "ANSI" or "Windows1252". (a real good tool likely calls it Windows 1252, as strictly speaking it's not ANSI...)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_pa....29_code_pages
Are these Text Editors?
Why not?
Sorry it wasn't clear for a text editor noob like me. ~:0 :smiley:
so I must save the file as Windows1252 else it wont work?
cause I did some moddifications to my EDB and saved it as ANSI :book2:
Windows 1252 is more popularly (albeit erroneously) known as ANSI. Therefore some editors choose to call it ANSI instead of Windows 1252.
Rest assured, that subtle nomencalture thingy won't crash your game. ~;)
While Tellos Athenaios remarks are totally valid they can bring a lot of unnecessary confusion to the topic of editing EDB.
Truth is that its very unlikely that you will have to manually select proper encoding for this file so you really should not bother with it.
I may be wrong but I dont think any editor will have problems with editing this file as far as encoding is concerned.
Doesn't the standard Windows text editor do this anyway?Quote:
