Patriots?

Post by Viper6 »

I noticed patriot launchers in the units and platforms list in the FPG documents but cannot find them on the units list in the mission editor. Can I just add them onto my CSV file without any problems or will the game go wonkey?

Viper,

As long as you use the correct TAG name (like PATRIOT, T-80BV, etc) to an existing formation they will work. I've never tried just making a unit in the CSV for the scenario. The counter graphic may go wonkey? Let us know how it goes. As time permits I've been adding a couple "missing units" (in the database but not fully integrated with counters or formations) with each update. At some point in the near future there will be an expansion to cover it better.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!

So far I have gotten the patriot units into my mission and they seem to be fine, they apear on the map and the AD counter icon works fine. I don't know if they do anything like they are supposed to since they haven't had to shoot at anything as far as I have tested the mission.
