VI unit guide

IMO the best thing for reading MTW unit_prod and build_prod files is simply Excel. You can easily get rid of unnecessary columns leaving only those with units' stats. When I try a new mod I always start with this.

btw you can edit and save mtw files in excel without spoiling the file structure. Do not ever try to use Gnome for editing. After few saves the file will be a total mess. If you have to use other program than simple text editor - use DragonEditor or Excel.

If you don't have excel then you can download something free such as libreoffice. The unit and build prod files are stored in a tab delimited format, which can be opened in a spreadsheet program and re-saved again in the same format. This is most likely how the developers edited the files as well.
