Archers shooting speed

[dirtgrubber]

Can the archers' shooting speed be changed?
for example, making Cretan Archers shoot twice as fast?
thanx

Oh, I don't know about twice as fast... The attack speed depends on 3 parameters:
1. animation speed - based on the skeleton used for the unit (defined in descr_model_battle.txt). Relatively few people would mess with this, yet this is the biggest factor.
2. last parameter on the unit's stat_prim line in export_descr_unit.txt:
Min delay between attacks (in 1/10th of a second). Most units have this set to 1, but you can make it even smaller. For example, 0.73
3. stat_fire_delay line in export_descr_units.txt. Not going to help in your case, though, since most likely everyone already has this set to 0.
