Thanks.

Re-downloaded and new installer offered install location options.[&o]

I just download Soviet Corps and the setup program doesn't allow me to change the install folder like your past products. Is there a way to change the install folder location?

<r> I fixed my problem. With 1.7.0 installed, I now have 4 english.txt files, the missing unit names were in the english_2.txt file. I cut and pasted that information into the first english.txt file and my problem was resolved.<SM sm="00000436.gif">[sm=00000436.gif]</SM><br/> <br/> I suspect it has ...

<r> I am playing with patch 1.7.0 and noticed that several units display unit_525, unit_526, and unit_527 instead of their names. It should display US TBM-3E Avenger B, British TBM-3E Avenger T, and British TBM-3E Avenger B.<br/> <br/> Also there are values missing for the M4A3E2_Jumbo. The missing ...

<t> All true, but the way I looked at it though was I needed to build transports to move the excess population to keep unhappiness under control. Cash has never been a problem in my games unless I get clobbered by unhappiness as I trade heavily with the other races.<br/> <br/> I also lost the tax mo...

I created a zip file of the two XML files that I changed. I uploaded the zip file as an attachment to my post in the Mod Section.

It turns population into an asset if you want to build big ships and create large armies.

It made things better for me.

Here are the two XML files that I changed to use population for Large Ships and Ground Units.

Go to the XML Folder and rename GroundUnitTypes.XML and ShipTypes.XML to some other name so you can restore if you don't like it. Then Unzip the two files in the XML Folder.

Yep, I tried it again but with the population cost set to 10 so it would be very obvious. Ten population points were deducted when I built one. Your were right, the growth rate was masking it on my earlier attempt.

Thanks. [&o]

I was wondering if the growth rate masked it. I will try your suggestion and set it a large number to make it more obvious.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: ShotmanMaslo<br/> <br/> Well, transports have to be build now. The way I imagine it is that transports dont require government shipyards to be built, because they are just simple civilian liners.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Iceman<br/> <br/> LE:I restricted the construction of Battleships to Construction systems.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Shark7<br/> <br/> Yes, this is one part of the game that is far less than enjoyable.
