help with ~ commands

[madmatg]

i may be an idiot but i need a lil more help with those commands, for example
it says
"create_unit" to create a unit you specify
but what the heck do i type after that?
where does faction go? where does unit go? does the unit go by the greek name? or english name?
if someoen could just write an example of creating a unit for an AI faction that would be wonderful, thx for yalls help so far

You can see examples of many of the commands in the EBBS_Script.txt.

This might help you:

Add units to the army of Gaivs Sextvs Cotta, by opening the console and entering the following:

create_unit "Gaivssextvs Cotta", "roman infantry legionary cohort i" 3 4 2 1

-> 3 units of Cohors Reformata will spawn in Cotta's army, each will have a single silver chevron, "silver" armour and "bronze" weapons.

Quick explanation of the code:

"Gaivssextvs Cotta" -> Characters name, Gaivs and Sextvs 
have to be joined together. Sextvs has no capital letter.
You could also use a settlements name instead of a characters name.

"roman infantry legionary cohort i" -> The unit label, this can be found
in the "export_units.txt" file. Don't use '_' !!!

3 4 2 1 -> 3 units / 4 chevrons / 2 armourupgrades / 1 weaponsupgrade.

Don't forget to place a "," between the name and the unit label !!!

move_character "Captain Jvlivsappvlivs" 2,48

Explanation of the code:

"Captain Jvlivsappvlivs" -> The characters name with Jvlivs and Appvlivs 
joined together. Appvlivs has no capital letter.

2,48 -> x and y coordinates of a tile on the campaignmap.

ah thank you sir i think i have been missing the comma in my attempts at doing this! this was just what i needd!

[madmatg]

ok so i tried it but it keeps giving me unit not recognized

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

is there something special to be done for ships or ports? or am i just typing the names wrong?
i got the ship name straight from the "type" in desc_unit. and made sure it was a briton ship
any help? i am an idiot!

You need quotes I think:

create_unit Chersonesos "eastern missile thanvare payahdag" 4

Also, I'm not sure you can spawn ships in settlements.
