Determining limit of a specific trooper [Solved]

15Cyber · Post by **15Cyber** » Mon Nov 03, 2014 3:29 pm

On my map Anakin is a playable character as any trooper, but I want there to be only one anakin on the battlefield, not 4 or 5 as it happens. How do I determine a limit? to be only one on the battlefield

Go to your map's lua file (for example ABCc_con.lua) and find the setup teams section near the bottom. By default you should see the list of unit classes and their limits. Here's one example:

Code: Select all

officer = {"rep_inf_ep3_officer",1, 5}

The first number that you see after the unit name is the minimum number of this kind of unit, and the second one is the maximum. Just change both to 1 for your Anakin unit and you're all set.

Yeah, and if I recall, you could also set an absolute number instead of min/max, like this:

Code: Select all

officer = {"rep_inf_ep3_officer",1}

I always thought that defined only a maximum value and left out the minimum. That's really good to know. Thanks Ace!

You might be right, it's been years since i've done any experimenting with that.
I did try it without any min/max numbers at all and the game filled in the unit randomly.

recently I just had one 0 put in and there were still troops spawning. 0,0 made no troops spawn.

From what you're both saying it sounds like putting just one value only defines a minimum and leaves the maximum up the game to decide.
