Could we somehow insert another square so it doesn't mess up?

**Steppe Merc** · 08-23-2004, 20:05

Yeah I think I might have figured out how to make the unit sizes from 2 digits to 3 digits. You do edit, insert string then press in the space bar to to add in another blank block. I have yet to test it, so it might not work. Wish me luck!

Some guy over at TWC has added Sacred Band Infantry and has shown a pic! After testing I can confirm they appear on the unit screen, but as of yet I can't seem to get the battle to work! I think there are more Carthage units possible to add also!

BKB have you tried uping the unit size? I tried it on the tutorial, but not luck... Oh wait, I didn't change the unit size on the prefences... Could that be it?

Yeah I'm sure there are more available units, much like in the MTW demo. The problem is finding them and how to add them.

I'm so confused. In the sections that I thought that the units had to be in twice (one higher up, and one later on), the unit sizes don't match what was origannaly denoted, and theres some Sacred Band infantry scattered in there, as well as Carthigianian Medium cavalry.

My first bit of modding (ever):

screwed around with the preferences.txt, and found out how to get back the old command scheme! The left-click to move setup! Just go to "Classic UI" or something like that and change "FALSE" to "TRUE".

I liked the old way. Made it less like a generic RTS and I've grown to like it. Plus I am way too used to the MTW/STW way. I just can't figure out how to change the length of the units - when I hold down the left button I get a select box, and not a unit formation adjustment-thing.

I hope someone figures out how to change the unit sizes.

Oh well.
