Hard-Coded Limits

[SigniferOne]

Is this big enough?

My dream has come true!

But seriously, it doesnt seems possible. Was that a multiplayer game I take it?

@Myrddraal: Yes, I'm on huge unit size, but that just doesnt cut it for me (I'm sorry to say) I wrote a little program that will go through the unit_prod file and multiply the size of the units by a certain amount up to the hard coded limit, but this makes the barbarian factions have a critical handicap during battle. They rely on large hordes of men per unit & if the Romans (for example) have an equal amount, then they dont stand a chance. i.e. the game becomes unbalanced :(
Furthermore, due to the population growth rate *not* being modified depending on what unit size you have selected, you run into very large problems getting your cities up to a decent level & maintaining an army. This, I far as I'm concerned, was an oversight by CA (that probably had Activision breathing down its neck). Propulation growth should be higher for the larger unit sizes.

Anyway, I digress. How do you get those gigantic units if it is possible?

PS Thanks for the warm welcome :)

another quick question :

what is top limit for amount of money that can be added to faction in descr_strat ?

[Dol Guldur]

Good question - I will admit to knowing it is at least 70 million

[Hans Kloss]

going over certain amount will eventually cause RTW to CTD or even worst PC might get locked up on the end of the turn.It would be good to know what would be highest amount per faction

just one question... what is the maximum number of units? In the FP it sais both 300 and 500... i need to plan:)

By trial and error process I have come conclusion that highest amount seem to be 999.999.

It used to be 300 but became 500 with the 1.2 patch. I guess I forgot to update the first paragraph!

are numbers of models allowed in descr_model_battle still at 255 ?

[Simetrical]

Yes.

Edit: And Dol Guldur says 70,000,000 is a valid amount of denarii in descr_strat.
