How can we disable arrows in walls in EB?

[PorT_Lobo]

I checked that EB still has the major problem of RTW of infinite arrows without garrison at towers in citys......

This is a major problem for me, as Human i easily can avoid it and conquer the towers, but AI don't! It attack under tower fire, and don't conquer towers, in result when they arrive to city center they had more than 30/40% losses without fight agaisnt human.

I want to disable it! I don't want arrows in walls....... Can any of you, EB modders, please tell me what i must change to do it please?

Sure brother.

Here is the DIY: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...t=wooden+walls

Tested and solved.

Here's what I did:
Edit desc_projectiles_new.txt (or whatever is used by your version)
Copy and paste the arrow entry and renamed that "arrow2".
Changed firey arrows to link to arrow2 instead of the original arrow.
Made the original arrow entry to have a max and min angle of 100.
Change all the entries in EDU.txt of "arrow" into "arrow2".


It isn't easy for new modders, but it will be included in my upcoming unofficial mods for EB, though I'm gonna wait till 0.82 to get em out.

Thnx fallen. I wanted this too, since it's always too tempting to leadthe AI around the city and letting them be eaten up by the towers.

Indeed, but worse is when I'm holding units in reserve in the city, and then the AI takes my towers, and when I try to get my reserves to engage, they are at half strength... causing me to lose the battle...
