Mercenaries in Multiplayer

[Diagoras]

Greetings all,

I was wondering if there were a way to make mercenary unit selections in battles be unlimited, irrelevant of faction.

For example, if I choose Carthage in a battle I am given the choice of Numidian Mercenaries, Balearic Slingers, and Spanish Mercenaries. Is there a way I could make the selection include all mercenaries?

Thanking you in advance.

Ownership of units is determine din export_descr_units.txt, so you'd need to go through all merc units and add to their ownership list all factions.

Thank you very much!

On a completely unrelated note, I've also been having some trouble with the force_diplomacy script. I have two scripts, one which activates it:

script

command_console force_diplomacy accept

end_script

and one which deactivates it:

script

console_command Force_Diplomacy Decline

end_script

Now, I don't know if the force_diplomacy decline script works because the accept script doesn't work. The trigger is meant to be the "showmehow" on the diplomacy scroll:

;------------------------------------------
Trigger 2085B_UI_Panel_Diplomacy_Help_Trigger
WhenToTest ScrollAdviceRequested

Condition ScrollAdviceRequested diplomacy_scroll

AdviceThread Help_UI_Panel_Diplomacy_Early_Advice_Thread 0

And the advice section is:

;------------------------------------------
AdviceThread Help_UI_Panel_Diplomacy_Early_Advice_Thread
GameArea Campaign

Item Help_UI_Panel_Diplomacy_Early_Advice_Text_01
Uninhibitable
Verbosity 0

Presentation Default
Title Help_UI_Panel_Diplomacy_Early_Advice_Text_01_Title
Script scripts\show_me\ForceDiplomacyAccept.txt
Text f_Early_Advice_Text_01_Text1

The specific error is, that upon clicking the question mark in the diplomacy scroll, the game CTDs.

Thanks for any help.

Did you put text entries in the export_advice.txt file for the .....text_01_title and .....text_01 entries etc? (file is in data/text folder)

if you forget that game will CTD when the advice thread is triggered.

[Diagoras]

No, I did not do that. I will try when I get home, thanks for the advice.

[Diagoras]

Sorry, I found export_advice.txt but what exactly am I supposed to modify? And why?
