Multiple Levels of Units Available

[tinjaw]

I am wondering why Level II and Level IV units are being made available. I could understand if the level IV equipment cost more than the level II equipment that I might want the option. But there seems to be no difference in cost. So why would I ever choose to build level II units instead of level IV.

I would say that the person who designed the scenario forgot to put a "block" on production of the earlier unit. (Under Items tab in edit).

This is not vanilla ATG so which mod are you using? I know there was a mod where obsolete types could still be produced because they were cheaper, but as this ain't the case it must be a bug.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting.
What scenario or random game type are you playing here?

best wishes,

Here is what I got from the person who built the scenario.

I think I may have an explanation for this. Gazfun researched all of the artillery and heavy artillery technology. When he transferred his research to me, he only gave me the level IV technology. So even though I had only researched to level II, I was also able to build level IV.

This may be a bug but it is a small one. The game probably should have required the transfer of level III technology also before level IV could be built.
