Changing Land Unit Cap
Posted: Sat May 06, 2006 1:07 am
To change land unit cap, its not as simple as changing Space Unit Cap (which is handled by one line in Factions.xml), because of reinforcement points. Since we can't edit maps yet (we need the map tools), we'll have to change the reinforcement point capacities, whcih is handeled in Markers.xml.
Search for this:
Line One: Marker Na,e
Line Two: Variant (Ignore this)
Line Three: Model (Change this to change the number on top)
Line Four: Additional Pop Cap (this is the key one to change)
So, if you want every +1 Reinforcement point to give +10, simply change the <Additional_Population_Capacity></Addition_Population_Capacity> from 1 to 10. If you want the glow to show +10, then change the number in <Land_Model_Name></Land_Model_Name> from 1 to 10.
This will only change +1 Reinforcement points though. To change others, you'll have to change the entries on those other ones. Don't worry, they all have the same layout.
These are the 10 different Reinforcement Point Markers.
Whenever a map is loaded, the game will go to Markers.xml for the information on the Reinforcement Points. The map will always have the same number of reinforcemnt points though, and of the same type, so you will have to change all the Markers to +10 if you wan't all reinforcement points to be +10.
This should be it, and Happy Modding!
