Editing npq file

[Lobster]

I thought there was a thread about editing the naval .eqp file but I can't find it for the life of me. [&:]

Maybe you're thinking of 19.9 in the manual.

[Lobster]

That's the ticket. I knew I saw it someplace. Thanks. Trying to find some way of simulating torpedoes.

[larryfulkerson]

See if you can simulate subs somehow or other. The rest of us would be greatful.

[Lobster]

Hah. That won't happen. I'm just trying to make MTBs. So torpedoes would just be huge short range shells. I think. Maybe. [:D]

But then you could shell land units with those torpedoes.

[Lobster]

And I could give the Germans B-52s for the Battle of Britain. What's your point?

Don't they torpedo a Japanese truck in Operation Petticoat? [:D]

Also, AFAIK there is no way to create a unit that can enter both shallow and deep water.

The only thing I haven't tried is putting rivers in deep water hexes, as someone suggested.

[Lobster]

You can place a river and then cover it with deep water and it will still be there I think. I believe you have to erase it to get rid of it.

Yes, rivers can exist 'under' the sea. We used them in D21 so that river patrol boats could skirt the coast [thru the sea hexes] from river to river in the Black Sea.

[Zovs]

Neato trick thanks for that!

[sPzAbt653]

It's not actually the greatest trick, because in some circumstances Land Units will move into the hexes. For example, a unit with Major Fording Capacity can retreat onto a Sea Hex that contains a hidden Major River. I'm considering removing them from D21.

Perhaps Major Escarpments could stop that, while letting riverine units to pass?
