How does one assign fort levels to units not in bases?

Post by treespider »

See the subject line...I'm using AAwulf's Excel utility...

How does one fort up a unit not in a base? Can it be done in the database editor?

Hmm. I assumed "Forts" was for locations and meaningless to individual LCU's and didn't include that field in the editor for LCU's. Did changing it in the Database Editor affect the unit in the game?

Haven't tested it yet ...but during play units will increase their fort level when not in a base location.

Ugh. Well, I already have the code written for it at least. Just have to remove a few apostrophes. This dashes my hopes of no more revisions.
