change unit class

Post by Photonred »

First time poster here thanks for all the help you've posted in the past. On to my question. Is it possible to change the target type of a unit and if so how does one go about doing that?

Cheers!

Welcome! Sorry, but the target types can't be changed. Maybe you can whittle it down to a few that are needed more than others, and then use a Unit Type is that is not used in your mod. Cheers!

Thank you for your quick reply! [:(] I wish it were otherwise I'd like to remove the cavalry units and replace them as Mech Inf but the soft target doesn't match the result I want.

Thank you very much for sharing that chart! I should be able to juggle the units around in the localization.txt to get where I want.[&o]

Cheers!
